Great Fun Today

Bought a panfishing video at a clearance. The guy showed a new tackle storage system comprised of clear plastic boxes for spinnerbaits,one for worms, etc....alll stored in one travel bag. Showed how it beat the old boxes with drawers, as lures get ruined and buried where you can't find one when you want it.
So, I went to a couple tackle stores and checked out the items and prices, and wouldn't you, know...Wally World had the best prices. I found a system that has 4 big boxes which you design youself, and they don't have the bag around them. just stay locked into a carryin device as a unit, yet each box slides right out when you need it! It was only $17...so I bought two !!
Then the fun started, I have all kinds of tackle from 20 years of trying to fish. Big Possum bellied boxes, little bait boxes, medium sized tackle boxes. I spent 5 hours sorting tackle!! Gosh I never knew I had so much tackle. Every possible worm, jig, fish look alike in plastic they make!The wife had to call me to supper, cause I was still out at the boat shifting tackle. Man what fun! Found some old friends too. Boy Howdy, Bass O Reno, Shannon Twin Spin, Pico Perch, Original Bomber with the metal ring in the tummy, Old Heddon Chuggers, WOW, What a blast.
Weather man say 15mp tops for wind tommorow, from south, Air Temp 70Degrees. Locals say white bass starting to show up in the creeks, and large mouth have been reported to straigten out hooks alot these last 3 weeks. Think I'll give it a go at Choke Canyon Hwy 99 bridge tommorrow.
With my luck, probably get skunked, but man just "being out there" That's what it's all about!
