Just as a word to the wise:
Never and I mean never use a tackle box with a pack of SWAs and a couple of packs of jig heads as a box for your wife's birthday present. She will NOT see the humor in it.
But if you must make sure the ice maker is working and have a good excuse for not coming to work.

Katie has her own selection of Gulps that I'm no longer allowed to touch...that doesn't stop her from digging through my jigs though.

This coming from a guy who fished a tournament on the day of his wedding and asked his groomsmen to stick around for the weigh in.

Yeah he did.
I thought I did pretty well when she started looking lots at the coast.

I brought home a new 4 wheeler when the day before my first was born...said it was an early b'day present for him. She was definately amused. Brought home a Yellow lab pup day before my second was born...another early b'day present. Again, not amused

You may want to try Gulps next time, and make sure those jig heads are "SureKetch Magnums"

I knew your big mouth would get you in trouble after winning all those door prizes at NFGFC.

I've still got some that stuff if you want to make some of your money back. I haven't been able to get the meetings in the last two months and won't make the one next week, so call all of the winning as making up for lost time and carrying it over.

It's gotta be better than a vacuum cleaner, right?
