cleaned out the 322lbs of extra tackle that I never use. I figured since the wind was cranking and the crwods were crazy I needed to reorganize my boat. Never knew I had 41 DD22's unopened....

i did the same thing, looked under all the cold weather clothing today and found the anchor I use for bed fishing. I stick a pole in the front of the boat and anchor the back down to keep the tail of my boat from drifting over my partner's fishing spots when im sight fishing. (cheap version of a dual power pole)
anyway that sumbuck is in my garage until next march, and that added a mile or two to the top end.I also threw out the ritz crackers we ate with jalepeno venison sausage all spring...(glad the sausage was long gone... could a been a little ripe)

Dicks had some hella good sales today...... added 10 new crankbaits and a few topwater baits to the collection and a dozen or so bags of soft plastics. Bought some lucky craft baits for 7 bucks each.... not a bad day!

Spent Saturday wiping down the boat with Acetone then putting the spray wax on. Picked up the old plastics and such around the boat. checked all the oil fluids and extras.
Thanks,

Stayed away from the crazies this weekend. I washed, waxed, and shampooed the carpet. Think I'll do some organizing today. Clean out some old plastics. Nuts how much junk we accumulate.

I was going to be mean, but I won't. It is lighter now. Need to do the same in mine. Only weight out of mine is the 30# I lost.
