After you hook your baits, hold the blade in the curve of the hook, hold tension on the main line above the hook and turn it all upside down. Shake the bait off the hook into the bait tank. Repeat on the next bait. I use my light bait rod for sabiki fishing. I sabiki up my baits and then switch to a hook or lure and use that rod for fishing. I don't like to carry lots of rods and reels.
A small piece of hypalon makes a good place to store your sinker and hooks so they don't get tangled up.

I love this. Easy to use & easy to store. I'm going to make one this weekend.
