Could we bring back this thread to help cure the upcoming cabin fever season?

It's snowing here today and I'm taking the day off from fishing so I guess I'll play!

I showed my stuff earlier in this thread (starting at post 53) - the photo below shows most of it now stored in the "tackle corner" that I set up a few months ago. There's more plastics and hard baits stored in tubs and trays out of the photo. The 3600 boxes in the photo are my "working" supply of baits and are what I take fishing.

As far as "restocking the tacklebox" goes - I've been scooping up lots of pretty good deals - YUM plastics for $1.89 bag, Strike King and XCalibur lipless cranks for $2.99 and some other stuff. I'm ALWAYS open to grabbing good deals as they come along...but all I think I NEED before the start of next season is some flouro line...

LOL Goose, if you're a minnow, I don't know what I am. I got less than 25 hardbaits/ spinnerbaits/ buzzbait etc combined. I got a few jigs though, mostly off the dollar bin. Jigs and swimbaits are all I fish anyway.

Plastics; I only buy them a couple of packs a time. Same for jigs; when I'm about to run out of them.

Allow me to show off a couple of baits I got today. I'm VERY proud to own these.

Don't have any pics but I got a great deal on some baits from BPS last weekend. Rick Clunn LC baits were on sale for 9.97, plus my wife works there so I got a discount on top of that. I bought 6 squarebills and one DD, some skirt material for tying jigs, and an Excalibur Erratic shad for $80. It's a good thing I had Christmas shopping to do or there might not have been any of the 1.5 size left B)

Keep an eye on the internet specials at lurenet.com. That's also where I got the XCalibur lipless cranks for $2.99...

In reality, Wal-Mart had a bunch of Dingers and a few other Yum products on sale for that price. Looked like they had been a little picked over at mine. Weren't many good colors left when I went through them.

Yeah - there were some "specially packaged" YUM products in my Walmart's $1.99 bin too. However, they were packages of (for instance) six Dingers...instead of the 15-packs (4") or 12-packs (5") Dingers I got from Lurenet. Gotta read the quantities!

I use a limited number of lures, spoons etc for fresh and saltwater, when I lose something I just fill in. No carries DOA 5 1/s jerk shads around here so I do order them right from DOA.

My favorite jerkbait is no longer being made, I've caught more bass on it than any other, not even a close contest. I have 2 left and I'm ticked...........and it only cost $2.99.

The word I inserted was a bit more graphic than ticked..........lol

I didn't notice this at mine, but none of it was the newer F2 series.

Just went back to check on the Yum products at Wal-Mart. Needless to say, I may be good on Lizards for the year.
