Now i gotta change all the hooks from old lures that have already rusted... split ring pliers? I've never changed hooks on my lures before *face palm* hahah

Just set it somewhere in the house with the lid open overnight to dry and you'll have no issues.

Quality cranks will rarely rust regardless.

For jigs and hooks, as you've seen, I keep them separate from my other tackle to prevent rust transfer. Just some small tupperware style containers from the dollar store will work well, plus it keeps things organized.

For removing hooks you will need split ring pliers(it can be done with your fingers, but its a major pain in the a**)
