disappearing tackle box

BassMasters · 12-07-05, 06:33 PM

me and skeeter944 were fishing at the lake accross my street. we had caught about 4 and we tide them on the stringer and to my tackle box. we walked a little ways until i decided to set my tackle box on the bank and threw the fish in the water. we walked down the dam a little ways and fished for a while. wen we came back the box was gone

we searched for at least 30 minutes until we started walking down the dam about 100 yards more and there on the bank was my tackle box. im going to have to start putting a tracking devise on my tackle box every time i walk 30 yards or more away from it.

its not as bad as forgeting to load the tackle box after a long day of fishing, driving an hour home, unpacking, realizing you left the tackle box, driving an hour back (if you had over $500 in gear you certainly would) hoping that nobody saw it considering it was dark out. getting there only to see you t-box gone, along with having an ounce of crippy and your favorite glass pipe in it then having to drive another hour home pissed off.

Its alright to put fish on a stringer if your going to eat them, but if your releasing them later, you could be injuring the gills by running a stringer through the gill area.P N J

Maybe you should get one of the fanny packs for bank fishing. Ive been using one for the past 20 years. They are really nice for bank fishing because every thing you need is right at your finger tips. I cant imagine not having one.
