...................... full bump..................

Well – it’s getting close to that time………. Where ya get back on the soft water......... so..............

Time to prepare!


- Clean most everything and dispose of all dried worms, cut pieces of line, messed up lures/hooks, petrified marshmallows, and any unknown smelly fubar substance on the bottom of my boxes, bags, and vests.
- Clean and inspect the rods – touch up any nicks with nail polish or epoxy……. Check the guides……..clean the foam handles……….steel wool the cork handles
- Clean & Lube the reels lightly as required………. Cut off any messed up line
- Re-sort and arrange the lures back to their original logically sorted homes in my tackle boxes
- Wash my fishing vests, gloves, and canvas/twill bags.
- Sharpen all my fishing related knives
- Take stock of my inventories of this and that – and replenish as necessary from ebay or sales.

- And most importantly…………..plan, plot, dream and look forward to the soon approaching full spring thaw……..smile

Cheers,
