i really get annoyed when i see my hooks getting rusted out and i didn't even get a chance to use them yet. but maybe thats just me.

I use the same boxes, with the seals, you still have to rinse your stuff, if the boxes are sitting in the back or as mine are on each side of the bait tank, they still get moisture in them, I have made leashes from phone chargers for flipping in the surf or falling in OTW, no trouble, I have larger boxes for striper stuff with the same leashes.
In innovations there is a suggestion for mounting brackets inside the hull to set boxes in which I may do here soon, to keep the deck more clear.
But for the salt water the sealed boxes are the only way to go
