I'm rather new to the bass fishing world and was wondering what the easiest way to fill a tackle box without breaking the bank. Is there a good way to get used lures? I have checked on Craigslist but can't find anything on there that is worth a darn. Any ideas?

Ebay. I've picked up several nice used crank baits at about half the cost of new.

Garage and estate sales would be a good start for used tackle

I will put together some different lures and such to get you started with if you are willing to meet me somewhere North of FW to hand them off. You can contact me via PM to work it out.

xwig16, your package is sealed up and will go out first thing in the(Monday) morning. Let me know when it arrives. FYI, I sent you an R.C 2.5DD instead of the R.C. 1.5 that i originally stated.

good luck,

Jack

Thanks but I have a ton of soft plastics already. I have been stocking up on those for about 6-8 months. What i'm running short on is spinners buzz baits and cranks
