Only needed 2 rigs: baitcaster for the Manns grape worm and spinning outfit for the beetle spin. Still have a pack of original jelly worms from back in the 70s. Unopened. And a handful of the original Big O plugs. Somewhere I still have my flasher in the attic. Paper graph is long gone.

But you had this cheat sheet! I learned to go in the opposite color of what it recommended before I gave that POS away.

POWER POLES or SHALLOW WATER ANCHORS That's actually a telescoping push pole they sell today. I have one in the shop.

I love the smell when you open a Mann's jelly worm package...
See you on the lake and have a great day!
