Prescription Polarized Sunglasses
I got my prescriptions from my eye doctor. I got the tinted and polarized. Great for driving.... Not so much for fishing. The glasses are to dark to be helpful to see threw the water. But with most medical you get a yearly exam, and discounted frames.

Bag, Box, Or Backpack?
I use the magnum bag from Cabelas. It is big enough to Carey most of my tackle for those long fishing trips up north or all day excursions. But I have enough (NOT to much) that I also now have a second bag that I carry only when I go shore fishing. I like having all my options on me. Because you never know what that lake may call for and what is hot.

I found a saltwater charter I plan to use however I'm looking for anyone that may know if a reputable Toho guide. I plan on brining down my rods and tackle for the fresh water trip, just want a knowledgeable person of the area that wants to get out for the day. I'm going to catch a southern hog that I hear about. Anyone know of someone?

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
I can officially say my bait money is GONE! However.... Those of you may not know the bait money has a family. I now have a relative, and he goes by the name shooter. Shooter money (like his family) makes you compulsively by gun related items. Who would of thought...

Never have a problem with that up here. I run 30lb braid no leader and have pulled in 32" Northerns with no problem.Only time I lose one is when I birds nest.

Tackle Backpack
X2 on a regular backpack. You can find them at Walmart for around $10 and with little to no modification you can carry 3 poles. The backpack I use for bank fishing I got for $8 during a school sale. It will hold 2 poles, 3 3700's, 1 3600, plus plastics, pair of pliers and a scale. And I could cram more into it if I wanted to.

More Expensive Habit Than Fishing
Last year I didn't think I could have found a more expensive habit than fishing. Then I pondered building an AR. Thoughts of a cheap, fun range gun went from a small and inexpensive to over the top high end. Free floating mil specs where a must. Out with the idea of a two piece with delta ring in consumer spec. Now.. How do I balance a fishing habit with a gun build that isn't suppose to be?? Lol

Daiwa P Force
So I was going through my rods and came across one I didn't know I had. It it's the rod mentioned above, but some Yahoo searches I am coming up blank. I can find info on a d Force and Triforce.. Anyone know anything past what I may know (action and so on.) Availability, value. I just want to know if it's worth keeping or dumping it locally for a good value or even free to a local kid. DWC-662MS is the model.

Tw Teaming Up With Rebaits To Reduce Litter
I agree. Just adding a box is not going to fix the issue, but maybe it will help curve the problem. But maybe little steps like this will help. On a conversation that I had on another forum a question was brought up. How much of the trash (wrongly discarded plastics) is from Fisher men/women throwing them in the water, and how much is from plastics being pulled off? Maybe this needs to be better looked into, and the problem might not rest in the hands of the Fisher, but the makers. Plastics like Z-Man's elastech (spelling?) might be a new bench mark in plastic making for durability.

Tw Teaming Up With Rebaits To Reduce Litter
So I came across this on TW's Facebook page. I think this is a great effort to help reduce the litter on the lakes, however this can only help if the sportsmen make it work. The idea of them maybe turning a profit on this doesn't bother me because of the the factors involved. The cost of implementation, the profit is all dependable on the amounts of baits received. What are your thoughts. (Link to site) http://rebaits.org/

I Need Chatterbait Help!
I guess I can add one that I do different for #1, And I guess it isn't really different. I like to burn it when i know they are top feeding. Sometimes I can get the blade to ripple the top of the water. But mostly I follow the same as others have mentioned. For me I like to use Bruiser paddle tails.

Tackle Spreadsheet
I have consisted doing this for insurance reasons, but found taking close up pictures of each box much easier. I might not be able to name 100% of the baits, I sure could name most. I do this for my rods and reels as well. My guns are the same way. I have pictures, models, and serial numbers all saved on my pc, and in my safe.

Looking For New Tackle Bag
Save money with school coming up and buy a backpack. I use my son's old one. It fits 3 3700's nicely and one 3600. Plus it has 3 large pouches for storing scents, baits and what not.

How To Avoid The Bait Monkey
I find fishing season helps a lot. In the winter I have nothing but time to look back at the previous season, and it gets me thinking about the up and coming season. This leads me to confuse I want with I need. During the fishing season I concentrate on replacing items, but the orders are not like those in the fall or winter. I just placed my first order since the season started in May and it was only $60, and was limited to strictly to replacing items I have lost.

Storing Soft Plastics
Look up the Plano utility box 3731. You can store two rows side by side, and they stack nicely. I always keep mine in original bags as not to have an opps melting incident again. Then you take out what you need.
