Small rig board (10 posts / 903 views)

I need something for my small bag to hold half a dozen made up 6-7" rigs. I'm using an old PVA tube which works but they all get twisted up and it's a faf

I used to have an MCF rig twig but guessing they're long gone now. Any suggestions or advice on something better than a PVA tube?

8" pipe insulation and some pins? Rigs go on the inside, hooks in the top.

I like the Korda Rig Safe in the smaller (8"? Size) but this may be too big for you. They also do a combination one with single side rig board and compartments for a few small rig bits like swivels etc on the opposite side. Magnetic closure, so no faffing with zips etc.

Not sure what sort of rigs/material you're looking at storing, but how about a coarse anglers adjustable or fixed rig board, they do them in lots of different sizes.

eg, though this one is expensive

EDIT, If it was me it'd be a long pencil case with a bit of foam at either end ...seriously...that's how I store my solar swing arms.

I've bought a fair few foam boards from AliExpress.

They come in various sizes, 21cm being the biggest. I use pins on the loop and the hook on the other end. Can use both sides of these.

I also have MCF rig twig that still works but not in use currently. Do they command a premium nowadays?

Not the best picture but I use these 'sprung' boards that I steam once on the board I will try and sort better picture out sometime but they take 10 rigs front and back and I buy the longer version

Just found a different picture - I think they are superb
