seen this question asked on fb and had fun reading the responses. i imagine i fall in the middle of the pack with 47.

Not bags, boxes....

If i dumped out all my totes in the garage and started counting them now it would take me until this afternoon to gat back with a number for you.  soft plastics and jigs are all i fish.

Enough too start a business and enough stock to hold me from now untill fall.im guessing 3000 bags ..

   Now that I started making my own plastics I would hate to even try to give that number. I guess the difference is now one bag might have 50 baits in it instead five bags with ten. When I use to fish Federation they gave us bags full of sample baits to try. Most of it I never used so when I would get home I had a box that I would pitch them in. Who knows why. I had a large box full of baits. So I separated all the colors and melted them down into baits I would use. The odd colors I just added black and made them black. It was free plastic and kept me busy this winter.

Um... more than I did yesterday at this time. C'mon, spring...

1000's................and that's all I am going to say

Way more than is practical.

It's easier to measure my plastics by the pound.  I probably have 1000's of bags.

In not sure,i brought around 100 bags with me to college. I have a few shelves piled with plastics and 8 boxes filled with plastics

What I have would fill Bass Pro!

peg boards and tackle bags full. probably around 800-1000. I really have no idea. So many that I haven used 3/4 of them.

I've got enough to open a small tackle shop.

I probably have 50 bags. I thought that was a lot. I don't even come close.

Probably 5 times what my wife thinks I have.

Just counted. I'm at 21 lol, and most of those are half full.  Heading to the BPS Spring Classic sale tomorrow, so that number will change for sure! My wife thinks 21 is plenty lol, This will only be my second season fishing, I'm still trying to build my collection, but am often met with resistance. I need to continue showing her posts like these

Ive got entire boxes dedicated to categories of baits... swimbaits, worms, craws

 

I actually just told myself yesterday that I wont buy any bags anytime soon

Hundreds. I figured out it was cheaper to make my own, so that's what I've started doing. About a $200 upfront investment and you can make thousands of baits in any color you want.

If youre anything like me, you will get to a point you have so many options that it can become impossible to focus on the details and start wingn everything thinking its a bait or color change away from glory.

I'm going through and trying to clear out ones I don't or haven't used.  Luckily, I've gotten to the point where I know what I like and what works for me.  I'm sure there will be the occasional purchase outside of that but, BIG BUT, I'm going to try to stick with the winners.

I am not sure but I doubt they would all fit in the bed of a truck?

wow. I have MAYBE 100... and I thought i was gonna be in the middle of the pack

I have too many. But I need more. I have mine categorized by worms, swimbaits, creatures and craws. Probably 25lbs of each. But I saw a few more that I'll pick up next time.

I'd have to guess it is somewhere close to the 4500 mark.  Were I to measure it by weight volume, it's got to be somewhere around 1200lbs of plastic.

Thanks - I don't feel as bad about have what I have now - actually seems somewhat reasonable compared to your half a TON . . . .
