Do you use talc powder??

All right around the caravan legs to keep the ants out, that's my use for it. Gel sachets or make your own with water crystals from garden shop.

I learnt something today too. I'm a tosser according to the poll results

I wasn't going to vote but with this I guess I had too

I use WD40 or inox - I reckon the fish probably hate it too.

I don't have a rust issue.

I use VMC PS ( Perma Steel ) hooks. they don't rust and are extra sharp, straight out of the box.

All other gear is kept in plastic bags.

Now, Scotty, if your " tackle " is rusting, you need to lubricate it or start using it. But, from what I hear, you either fish the fresh water or not at all.

I voted option 4

OH, you missed Jam filled lamingtons yesterday.......

On the more serious note, good thread, as I feel it is very important to have non-rusty tackle / hooks and to also keep ya tacklebox tidy and clean.


cheers..then. !

I just don't brag that's all.
Merry Christmas to all. Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way......

I read post number one (finga's) then looked straight above the phace protection add and seen my answer, didn't have to read the other three.

I only use talc on wet feet to get the sand off before I put socks and waders on.

[death_ship]

I use it on the batwings

Did you read past the first 4 words of that option?

Rice works, I have a tonne of hook in rice and it does the job, cheap too.
Only thing is it sits in the hinge of the tackle box, though its been over a year, yeah and some splash and sand, but it works very well on lure and hooks.

Talc or flour gets some moisture and it goes to glue, no thanks.
Depends if you talking open tackle kit or a closed container, rice works well on my standard open tackle kits.

Open as in your digging into them with wet hands while changing a hook.
