Restocking the tacklebox/Show it off.

[FL_Sharpshooter]

Took more than a few minutes, but here's some better pictures .

Thanks Raul, it is organized pretty well. However it needs a bit more work to get it where I want. The work bench is normally clean and used to work on my tackle.

[JigMe]

Sean,

That's a great way to organize your stuff, where can I find some hook and board like yours? Or you made it yourself.

[roadwarrior]

My slant on "reorganizing" is to get rid of stuff I will

never fish. Most of this are lures that came with

a "package" purchased from guys here or given to

me one way or another. I used to think I fished about

25% of my tackle, but after going through it the last

few weeks, I have come to the conclusion it's more

like 10% or less! At any rate, I have disposed of a

bunch of baits and hope some of it works out for other

fishermen here at BassResource.com.

Its called pegboard.  You can get it and the hooks at any hardware/home improvement store.

When I had my business I had a 3000sq ft shop for my boat and tackle. It was more then many tackle shops had, and better organized. But I sold and had to move it home. My garage is maybe 600 sq ft so most of my gear is in big totes and put away. There is a season supply of everything I need, and alot I dont need in those pics. When you have alot of room like I did, it doesnt seem like so much stuff.

so since you have 40,000 times more gear than I do, does that mean you catch 40,000 times more fish? haha just kidding but that does seem pretty darn excessive. I think I am going to have to send those pics to my girlfriend so she stop thinking I spend too much on tackle.

Not even close. We have several members here with similar amounts or more.

If you actually use the stuff and/or compete in tournaments, it's far from excessive.

[chromedog]

You know, when my wife complains about the amount of tackle, I just show her threads like this and it puts it all into perspective for her, lmao!

LMAO...I like your idea. "time to save those pics"

[DeBassin619]

Man, That sure is a lot of gear you have.

All I have to ask is: Don't you get paranoid about what to use once your on the water haha?

Well yes and no. It is a peg board but its not board. I think its called Gator Board. I bought 3 of the fishermans kit package deals. It comes with some 4"x30" also, but I have not found a place to mount those yet. It comes with pegs, but I went and bought 40 longer ones from Home Depot for my favorites. The peg board gets old, and sometimes breaks apart under weight. This stuff also comes in clored as well. Check out the In the House segments on Basszone. Its pretty cool to see some of the pro's set ups. Alot of them have the Gator Board.

    Im not sure, but its fair to say that I catch quite a few fish. Im going thurday. I have several sponsors to so I get some stuff free. But, the Zoom and Reaction Innovations stuff I buy in large quantities. Say 20 packs of each color of my favs, and maybe 5 of a few others. Ive also been doing this for a while, so it builds up over time. When I go to a Pro/Am I tend to spend a few hundred bucks every time. Ive stopped doing that with new styles. I was getting to many different baits. I couldnt keep track of em and I wasnt using them. Made my friends very happy every fall when I clean out inventory.

    I also buy a case of new Plano's every year. I replace the oldest most beat up boxes with new. I have a friend likes the old ones. There are usually some baits left in them for him to use. I moved the stuff to my garage 8 months ago and I still cant get it the way I want. Some crazy lady who says she is my wife keeps demanding half the garage. > I used to have a sponsor that was a custom pour expert. Guy was always giving me more and more. He would make my preferred colors and do an amazing job. Unfortunately he passed on 2 years ago. I still have plenty of inventory though. Those are kept in the plastic drawers below.I really need to get the drawers organized and labeled, thats my last bit to do.

[SeanW]

Man, That sure is a lot of gear you have.

All I have to ask is: Don't you get paranoid about what to use once your on the water haha?

    I have alot of experience on the lakes in Northern California. I usually pack the boat depending on where Ill be fishing. Then pack a few "what if" baits and Im good to go. But last year I screwed up. Went to a tournament expecting to power fish and ended up having to buy a drop shot rod.  >:(I wont make that mistake again.

I was pretty impressed with all of your gear until I got to the COORS LIGHT cans!!!

let me be your friend, I will take those old boxed with stuff in it. I should be stocked for a year...lol. I am kidding dude.

LOL, Im not prejudiced I love beer and whisky. Ill drink alot of beers. That day, thats what there was. Day before was Bud Lite, before that was Blue Moon.  ;D

[tnbassfisher]

Sean, those are the impressive pics that I was looking for!

[Nice_Bass]

I have some of those same Coors lite lures, they always seem to produce, but I seem to run out of them on every fishing trip. ;D

LMAO. I agree. Those are awesome lures to catch some bass. last time I was out for 10 hours, because of that d**n lure. (well, I juice it up with some blue label and pepsi). haha!

You ruin blue label with Pepsi?????????

That pretty much sums it up for me too.  I might not even be 10% though.

Wooooo i got to ask hows that new Skeet Reese Honeycomb rod and that Shimano Caenen working? Thats the same combo i have been looking into for a while now.

   Roby

[Texasfishingtips]

I love it. VERY light combo. The rod has a nice tip and a pretty good backbone. I use it for flukes almost only but if i needed to throw a DS or a Shakeyhead i could on it. I like throwing flukes on a weighted hook b/c I think that it gives them more action. It seems that the micro guides do add some distance you can cast.

[WoolleyBass]

Perfect that sounds awesome. Im really going to have to look into it. Thanks for the info

No prob, you just have to find equipment that works for you.
