My Puma FTD Storage

I recently had surgery on my nose and throat to hopefully correct this sleep apnea (cant handle the breathing machine) and Ive been bored at the house so I thought I would post how I have my Puma FTD storage set up. Maybe give someone ideas since Ive seen a lot of post regarding this.I keep life jackets and clothes in the front compartments. I also keep theweigh-in bag in the net storage.11 rods fit no problem in rod storage. I could fit several more if needed.Made these dividers out of 1/4" plexiglass and glued them together. Keep all my hard baits in eight 3700 plano boxes turned on end with four 3600s on the side plus two more 3600s with jigs in front not shown in the picture on the right side. Got plastics in containers on the left side. Those are Rubber-maid Handi-Boxes that are good size for holding worm bags. More than enough room for anything you could need.This is a picture of a Handi-Box with zoom finesse worms and one of the plexiglass divider. Tupperware boxes sure help keep things organized in the huge console glove box.I keep important things in the triangular compartments in the rear of the boat.

Hey, nice job. Looks like you have it well organized. The only thing I see wrong is the tri-angle storage looks like it needs to have a few more things put in it. Thanks for sharing.pant 2Bob

There always seems to need more things in the triangular storage.Its funny though, the bass will always go to the bottom pocket – I guess to get as deep as possible or hide. There are two in the picture.If you can believe it those are Guntersville from two weekends ago. Fishing was slow and mostly small. The worst weekend Ive ever had there.

stickwurm – yes that is drywall corner bead. I just bought an 8 section for $2 at Lowes and cut it to fit. Works pretty well actually. Im sure it doesnt work as well as the cooks system but better than the spinner bait boxes.Its kind of funny – I spent over $50,000 for the boat but, hey, I saved $20 on the spinner bait storage instead of buying the cooks!

what is the Cooks system? For my bladed baits, I am just using regular ziplock bags.. It keeps everything flat and compressed, which saves space and keeps things water proof. I dunno if it has a negative impact on the skirt or not but not letting them dangle freely.. but once in teh water. the skirts looks just the same to me and just as lively. I use terminator spinner baits.
