Found a big tackle box on the ground at the parking lot. If it's yours, please PM me with description what's inside and I'll see if I can give it back to you ASAP.

Not trying to hijack the thread, but I'd just like to thank you for being a decent and honest person. I've recently had a couple of things stolen from me (or "found" and never reported/returned--one of which was my iphone 7) and it's refreshing (and encouraging) to see someone doing the right thing, even above and beyond what you "have" to do. Here's to hoping the owner finds it, and here's to you having some good karma coming your way sooner than later.
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. --John Buchan

Thanks for your kind words and hope the owner browsing this site. There are quite many things in the box too.

Here is a free bump to this post. On a similar note, I found a wallet in the same parking area a few weeks ago. I couldn't find a phone number in it and was not going to spend hours searching the creek for the owner so I drove to the address on the driving license and found the owner at home. He did not even know that he was missing it. He was very thankful. I couldn't leave the wallet where I found it so I just did what felt right even though I had to drive 20 minutes out of my way and back. I hope people would do the same if I ever lose mine.
