I like fishing jigs and spinnerbaits for bass. They both catch fish year round. But they create a storage problem. The skirts go everywhere. This is especially true of living rubber skirts, which are what 90% of the jigs I hand tie employ. So I started putting mini-rubber bands around the skirts of my jigs and blades. They are made for orthodontic use with braces, I have a load of them from my braces years. Pull them over the skirt and when you need to grab a blade or jig, just push them off the hook and tie on. This has allowed me to keep upwards of 30 jigs in a small 6 slot box, and you don't pinch nearly as many skirt fibers in the lid and hinges of your storage boxes.
