Default PING: WW (gobassn) - Falcon tackle storage spotted at boat show

They held the annual Raleigh Bass and Sal****er Fishing Expo and Boat Show
at the NC State fairgrounds this past weekend and I found a lot of your
Falcon tackle bag/box stuff there, in the booths that were setup like
'stores'.

I can say after playing with them a little (I like the latch closures on
them a lot) and seeing their pricing that I too would recommend them to
anyone looking for a tackle-bag solution and weren't commited to any brand
yet. Nice stuff really. I almost bought enough to make the switch to it
after seeing their solution for spinnerbaits, but I'll make it though
another season ok with my Plano stuff likely, then reassess.

Anyway, while I was there, I picked up a few fishing t-shirts (don't we all
at such shows?), some discounted Lucky Craft Live Pointer crankbait lures
($14 a piece, after tax), and some new fangled floating fishing pliers (all
the truth) and I also put in an order for a fully loaded Triton Tr21X for
about $45,000 (a big fat lie!! LOL!) And I almost forgot, I got a 1938 repro
metal tackle shop sign for some really old company called Wright and McGill
(aka Eagle Claw hooks). Looks nice hanging over the cabinet in my shop where
I keep all my fishing stuff.
