My Deck Box Strategy

So you may say - What the hell am I talking about?

This is something I do in-between fishing trips so that I can go in better prepared every time I go out on the water.

If you’re like me, every time you drive home from a day of fishing you reflect on what you could have done different that day; except for on those rare occasions when you have the perfect days and seemingly do nothing wrong.

The strategy is simple: every time I park my boat in the shop I leave an empty tackle box on the boat deck. Through out the week I will fill this box with lures I had the brilliant idea to use after the fact or new lures I may have purchased that I want to try next time I go out on that same body of water.
We have all heard the phrase 'Hindsight is 20-20' - well here is your chance to expand on this next time you go out.

Granted, this does not always work. Sometimes things change so much overnight, not to mention in a week or two, that your lures you chose to use next time you go out might as well be back where they came from. This is just a good way to capture those thoughts and try and apply new ideas and strategies throughout the year.

Just remember to empty this box and start over each time you get home, otherwise the idea is kind of pointless.

I love that popper man - I'm up to 3 now lol. Do all yours walk well? Only one of mine walks like a champ.

Looking forward to checkin out them new gills.

I have had to play around with different weight hooks on each of my poppers to tune them.
