No, I know I buy too much stuff already, I don't need to feel extra guilty lol. 

 

Something I have always wanted to do is total up my TW orders just for kicks, I'm sure it's not pretty haha.

An impossible task for me... it’s a number that’ll never stop increasing.

I hang everything on pegboard. Easy to inventory and nice to look at. 

 

As for counting; nope but at some point my kids and grandchildren will never have a need to buy anything other than terminal tackle.

I've never tried to count them but for insurance purposes, etc. I did photograph all my hard baits and examples of every soft-bait I have.  It took a lot longer than I expected.

but what's the real benefit?

After reading this thread and a few others it made me think that I should start to inventory.  I do not have much as I fit all of my tackle into 1 bag and a miscellaneous shelf or tw. ok maybe 3.  But I only inventoried my bag in depth (that I normally take with me) to try and stop the bait monkey from jumping on my back.  Constantly finding a sale and jumping on it- because the bait monkey made me do it- is getting costly.  

 

I thought it would help....

 

 

It didn't- Now I need 2 new rod/reels and several baits that I am missing just to fill the void...

Organizing your tackle goes way further than some list of what you have.  I opened my terminal tackle box, and visually, I could see I needed 4/0 worm hooks and some flipping weights.  Pretty simple.

Mybe you find it offensive about what I am going to say, but when I get back to fishing after divorce(she stoped me from fishing the we moved from Thailand for 9 years), I am living in heaven, I sleep with my tackle every night. I hold them and polished them every night in bed, hold them shake them to hear the noise, turning blades and check the hooks. Haha I was on shopping mood for a year and half, I got my tackle box stolen from back of my truck but my other box and bag pack was n home, so make story short, right now I have:

22 crank bait

6 jerk bait

2 glide bait

5 jig

3 lipless

2 chatter bait

2 frog

2 whopper

9 streamer(yes for bass fishing)

50 jig heads(swinging and normal)

23 bag of diffrent plastics

and terminal tackle I cant count them they are so many. and rods only 6, 3 spining and 3 bait caster combos). 

I attach the picture of my to go box(not including my bag).

Wow! Nice! I would never remember every bait that got a fish. To you keep a daily log? I have been thinking about starting one.

It's a sub project within my yearly fishing log, and contains even more information (The Specific Bait, Date, Number of Fish Caught, etc). All I can say is, it's a commitment and sacrifice both on and off the water, and even during the off season when the lakes are frozen. I started taking it serious somewhere around 2014, and it's grown bigger and more detailed every year since...

That's about the same for me...

No, I don't.  As long as everything is organized I can look at the container/boat compartment that holds what I am looking for and know at a glance if I need to make a purchase.
