Getting a bit frustrated with my rig boxes.
Ive got the long korda rig safe, a long cheap NGT case, and a new shorter NGT box which is absolute ***** https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/381775200270?hash=item58e393400e:g:y0UAAOSw~OVWxdmY.
Are the rig wallets any better for storing plenty of rigs? the boxes dont store enough.
Any recomendations?

Why do you need so many rigs? 1 large rig safe is All I use and that's usually half empty. I can't imagine what you need three for.

Also only use one side of my large korda rig safe. 3 rig boxes is just overkill. I tend to just use rigs where I can easily change the hook. Plenty of time on the bank to make a couple in between bites etc if needed.

Why? I have one Korda rig box with a few in that rarely even gets opened. Just tie them up as you need them and that way you are using the correct rig and not just chucking on whatever you have got ready

Think it stems from my match fishing background and always having plenty of hooklength spares and options.
Must admit my carp rigs do last a lot longer so I don't really need so many.
They don't half look good lined up in the box tho

I always used to get annoyed not being able to line all the pins up,rights being a few mm different in length and I did find that the slightest difference in length affected my confidence in the rig too

Some people might find this interesting, or no !
I don't actually use ,have or want a rig board as I tie them up as needed,and my thinking is as ,a minimalist who doesn't do a bag for a bag ,unless it's rod protection..however I have a two inch cut down piece of grey pipe lagging which can hold two sharp simple rigs,my whole set up.of riggy bits including turbo lighter and cut down wooden sporks ,fit in the smallest lead pouch gardner makes..
It works for me...

Cut from the same cloth we are lol.
I do love the minimalist approach, its liberating. 4 rigs for me coiled up in an old hook packet.
On the rare occasion I seem to go fishing these days.

Tie them as you need them saves a huge amount of hassle

Same...I carry 6 leads,three on three spare,rest of em in my bug out,...plus spare clothes,100ml.of meths..kept in bug out,and everything else tidy ,minimal and used,if I don't use it it don't bring it..

Too much gear...each too their own...I'm still.comfy going minimal, I just do my product research..
