Hi Lisa
was just reading your post and thought I would make this offer
I have an old box here it is a flambeau strike force tackle box that ill
never use
and never throw out it is yours if you would like it would not make it there
for xmas
but I could throw it on a gray hound and it would be there soon. so then you
could
just work on the stuff to fill it. I can send you a pick of the box if you
like you can email me direct at

Go to Walmart and ask the dept manager for advice. then when your hubby
gets the gift, he can take back what he doesn't want and buy what he needs

Good morning all,

Let me start this post by saying I know less than nothing about fishing.
However, my husband loves to fish. Therefore I am trolling the fishing
NG's
for some info (get it? trolling??? LOL! ... sorry, couldn't resist).

Anyway, through a series of odd circumstances, he has lost all of his
tackle
and has only his fishing pole left. I would like to get him a nice
starter
tackle box for Christmas but really have no clue what to put in it.

My budget is fairly small, perhaps $40 at the max. I need to get him a
tackle box, of course, but then I need to know what are the basic items
that
every tackle box should have.

I don't know if it makes any difference or not, but we live near the
Gulf
Coast, so he would have access to fishing there, but he also enjoys
fishing
in lakes and streams, wherever he can.

I'd sure appreciate any input to make this a great Christmas present!

Thanks,
Lisa
