    It's not the amount of lures but the age. At the last clearout found an old vibroiail & one with rusty trebles in a box by itself. Took a while to remember why it had such special treatment. Mid 60's a magical afternoon 8 barra in a flooded creek on a $3 unknown lure (Bellbrook imitation). Hooked for life. Bill

    Re: Lock Up Your Lures

    Ha funny thread you have going here guys & girls.

    My brother buys lures and his wife goes straight out and buys shoes. He thought he had a couple of rods camouflaged under the radar, but she went out and bought shoes as she pre-empted the purchase!!!! Funny stuff we joke about every time we see them!!! Fishn bits grin every time they see his car pull up!!!!

    I'm lucky - my wife buys me lures - and good ones for Xmas & Bdays!!! The Tacklewarehouse boys smile when they see us coming as well - i'd say we keep the boys beer supplies going most months!!!

    And now with all the great soft plastics on the market.... well we had to go out and buy all of them as well.. doubling stocks... What next?

    Fishing/tinkering - telling yarns - how much fun is it...Gotta love it..

    Cheers Lyndon & kel

    Re: Lock Up Your Lures

    Good day all,
    Have dig pic. all my gear just in case,seemed to be the best idea to validate any possible claims as my brother had a battle on his hands a few years back with his ins. company over around $5000.00 worth of stolen gear(taken from his shed).The ins. company stated that "no body has $5000 worth of fishing gear" and made an issue over the true value.Eric got his $5000 in the end but it took a few months to finalise the claim.
    Taking dig pics at least gives you more than verbal evidence re claims
    Cheers

It's very hard walking into the house with a pocketful of lures that rattle.....they can attract bass and nosey kids...what's that Dad, why's your shorts rattling Huh ???......shuddup !!!

    God I'm lucky ..... These days I can walk in , throw the new toys on the coffee table & leave em there ( until the kids stay over next) ...... Otherwise they want to look/play with them.
    Last time , my daughter re arranged 5 tackle boxes ( according to size & colour) ....... not top water , divers , bream/bass & SW casting ..... like they were
    She was severely chastised for her effort ....... I told her that " I don't rearrange her Brats dolls & accessories! " ....... Please don't arrange the lures

    Re: Lock Up Your Lures

    Yes Gordon it a problem alright, you can fight the arguement with make up and feminine hygiene retaliation. However the hygiene argument is benign as its nature. I find taking your wife by the hand and leading her nto the shoe cupboard a much more effective method of shooting down "ANY" arguments about how much we spend on lures. If by chance she still complains turn to the handbag section!

    'Guys and gals' or 'Ausfishers', maybe. I knew a girl whose boyfriend never understood why she spent so much on fishing and on her boat (don't know if she's still with him or not!) so it's not just blokes who have to justify their fishing expenditure.
