I was thinking we could get together this winter and have a tackle-swap, beer drinking fest somewhere. For instance, I have a bunch of mirolures that I have given up on, sure would like to trade them for someone's bucktail jigs... I have some rods I want to get rid of also. Maybe we can make it part of the social or something. Just a thought.

sounds like a great idea. I think we all have some of those lures that look great (or we have been told are great), but that never materialized into quality fish.

A lure-trade is a similar concept to a poker game I was involved in my last trip to the Everglades. We were camping and not returning to Choko for almost week. As it turned out a couple of my buddies hadn't packed enough soft plastics to feed all the jacks and ladyfish one inevitably encounters in a search of snook. A poker game with lures of all values ensued.

Inshore for offshore rod/reels. I've got at least two extra stradics/redbone combo's. Tackle trading I'm looking for offshore stuff...TLD's in particular.

I can just imagine the conversation;

Q. "I have this box of lures that I can't catch anything on and I think they are useless, what will you swop me for them ?"

A. "Errrrr, a small bucket of mud"
