Speaking of FTO... buzzbaits

Jig it, spin it, buzz it, if it's got a wire or a lead head, it can and will be discussed in here.

Speaking of FTO... buzzbaits

Post by 78Staff » Thu Mar 03, 2011 3:34 pm

OK, I know the FTO Spinnerbait and Buzzbait boxes are a great system. I'm an FTO fan, especially as a non-boater - but, I mean really who takes 30 or even 15 buzzbaits out on the water? I mean I generally have 3, maybe 5 at most at any given time. Seems like a waste of half an FTO box, really. They are tricky to store due to the wide blade, any suggestions?

I'm thinking of using one row of a generic FTO divider box, with the rest dedicated to Jigs as I am not fond of the FTO Jig box either...

I bought one each of the FTO Buzzbait and FTO Spinnerbait, but soon realized I didn't want to have 2 boxes when only carrying a small number of lures, so I removed one of the inserts and placed it in the other to create a spinnerbait/buzzbait box. I use the original FTO Buzzbait box, with the one insert, for storage of buzzbaits I leave at home and a Plano Pro Latch Spinnerbait Box for storage of spinnerbaits I leave at home or for when I don't bring spinnerbaits at all.

?? I don't see any storage containers from Eye Surrender...are you talking about the wraps for a single lure on a rod?
