Hard swimbaits go in a 3700 box with hook covers as I am not worried about the tails getting bent. Soft baits hang in the same type box of their own. take some snap swivels and cut the swivels off. Drill a hole in the box so that the ring where the swivel and the snap joined on the swivel will not go through it. Poke em through and hang your baits up. If you find just the right size snap swivels you can hang 8" Hudd's in the same way.

Soft line through baits are basically hung the same only I use a paperclip and bend it over after pushing it through the hole in the top of the box. Drill the hole just big enough so the paperclip will go through it then just bend it flat so it is parallel to the top of the box. Some paperclips will break after multiple bends but it is easy to carry more and they are cheap.

here is something else you can do with the plastic ones. doesn't show good in the picture. straighten out a paperclip, thread it into the tail ( swimbait colonoscopy, hahah )to keep the tail rigid and bend a loop in the end .
