Now, I travel light and just bring a couple hooks, some terminal tackle, an iron or 2, and maybe a couple pieces of lead. I put that in a ziplock in my center hatch. About as low tech as possible, but its easy

The rice thing does work. They use that to draw moisture out of cell phones and other electronics that get wet.

Like you I have found that it's easier to travel light and take what you need and not what you will not use. Ziplock bags are great for storing sinkers and hooks.
