Bobby, another thing you can do to a standard plano box is put a bead of silicon on the bottom of the divider before putting it in place. If you can rough up the area where it is to go a little you get better adhesion. Now the hooks cannot slide from one compartment to the next.



Was planning on trying the silicone in the next couple days. Should work out good I'm thinking.

Go to a craft store and get a piece of sticky back text-ur foam. You can stick it to the inside cover of the box. I use super glue also or it will fall off. You can get it from a craft store for cheap (link below). they are about 1/8 inch thick and they form a nice "seal" so hooks can't bounce around.

I just used small plastic baggies and a sharpie and label with hook size/type. Has worked great for years.

Also, I use those little silica gel packets/barrels (the kind that would come with shoes) in my boxes and have found that it cuts down on any excess moisture and I don't have any more issues with corrosion.
