This may turn into a tackle purge. We are going to fish all of our usual stuff then have to try all the other stuff we never use. Going to end up a little lighter in the boat by the end of summer

I guess my goal will be not to lose anything this year...

 

Already failed.  I guess I should set more realistic goals...

 

Only spend _____????

Good news is just about all of our soft baits are made in the USA, so if there is a shortage of tackle, I think I would be plenty good with what I have and plenty of soft baits to buy......

Noticed on TW that not only they're 11 days out to ship but they're also not backordering any rods/reels/lures. 

If you guys are not wanting to order from TW at order from fisherman's central in Ohio. Top notch guys and most of the time it's same day shipping 

He's compensating for something.

I went threw all my plastics and most are made in the US. Bio spawn is made in China and the Rage stuff isn’t specific where it’s made but their is a Big distribution Company in Tennessee? Yum,berkley,Yamamoto,Missle baits,Zoom all these are made in the USA. 
 This still doesn’t put us in the safe zone a lot of stuff like parts and machinery  is outsourced from who knows where so I’m going to continue in my doomsday tackle preppping.

10% more than last year?

A few thoughts on the video.

1) The guy has to be paranoid to open his garage.

2) He doesn't fish because he's too busy with his lure hobby.

3) His poor family will spend a lot of time offing that if he goes to the bass pond in the sky.

These guys are terrible and don't know anything!?  ( Why you have to give our little secret up man?)?
