Oh yeah! I've organized it a dozen times and will probably do it another dozen times before the season opens. It seems that I need to organize it every time I get a new bait. :

Me too...

I've used mine all winter, sorry. I couldn't take that ice thing. 8-)

I think I'm ready, somebody just say GO!

Touche', Dominick.  

mine is never ready  there are always a few baits out there that i can always find a spot in the box somewhere    lol but for the most part im ready for 08!!!!!

I not only prepped my tacklebox but also a friends.  His looked like a tornado hit it and I couldn't bear to see such a catastrophy.  If I'd needed an example for a PhD dissertation on chaos theory, his tackle box would have fit the bill nicely).  But actually, it was fun to put some order in that 14" X 7" plastic box.

People still use tackle boxes? :-?

Most certainly!! It's quite difficult to carry a boat around the shoreline of the ponds that I fish. It's much easier to pack a backpack tacklebag full of gear and use that!

Tackle box

The only people I see carrying those are old people and young kids.

I have a small OLD PAL metal box, with one tray I keep in the truck for pond fishing and I GUESS I AM AN OLD GUY!

My tackle is always organized. It is therapy for me in the evenings. Some folks enjoy a cocktail or a fine cigar after work.

Me, I like triming jigs, and sorting soft palstics into zip lock bags by type. I have a "man cave" in my basement complete with TV, refrigerator, fishing tackle room, collection of 15 years of fishing mags, and all my tackle catalogs. I can always find something to tinker with down there.

It is a sickness, but hey, it beats most other obsessions I know of.

This was the weight of his best five fish for each day.

I'm really low on supplies but things are looking much better.  I have hit e-bay for a few good deals that I'm really happy about.  Sweet for rapalas that are normally too expensive.  Of course you also have to take into account shipping

Where you fishin' Cooter?  I live in Leeds so I'm just a few minutes from you.  I usually fish Neely Henry but I have a membership at Sportsman's Lake.  That's in your neck of the woods.  Just holler when you want to go.

Check Walmarts and Gandermountain. At wamart they had a case that has 1.00 lures. They have buzz baits and other stuff. At Gander they also have 1.00 lures. I LOVE THE CHEAP STUFF!!

Ok poll added. Also, just respooled my pike/bass Daiwa Shock and respooled my mucky reel with 80lb test.

Starting, its been ready for weeks just like me.  I cant wait to get out there so im doing everything i can that has to do with bass fishing like readying my tacklebox, cleaning reels, reading articles magizines and books on bassing, watching tv shows and been on websites like this one.  

I fish year around so I am always ready.
