LOST: Tackle Box, $20 Reward

Post By: Vanish Posted: 6/20/2013 9:14:01 AM Points: 668

Wow, can't believe I did this. I was carp fishing at Lagerman Monday night and stayed a little long. In my haste to leave, apparently I left my tackle box on the shore. I was fishing over by the fence on the North West (parking lot) side.

Box is an ancient Plano (originally my grandfather's). Light Brown on Top, Green on the Bottom. One of the buckles to close it is broken.

I just ran over there and it is gone, as I expected.

$20 Reward for its return, otherwise I'll have to fly fish the rest of the year!

A little bump for the time being, this is important.

I seen a couple of guys walking in the parking lot and it looked like they had a tackle box like that.

Last night my wife's father arrived in town. Over dinner we were talking and he said he had never caught a walleye. She suggested we take him to a local place and I was like ... and fish with what? I guess a trip to Walmart is in order.

Vanish,
On many metal lures and tackle boxes sportsmans is cheaper than Walmart if you have one convenient to you. Hope the old one turns up though!

Thanks coloradomrg, but we're about as far from one as we can get and still be on the front range (gunbarrel).

Attached is a photo. We're hanging a sign picturing it at the lake in a little bit.

Last bump for this. Sign posted at the lake on Friday, but no contact over the weekend. Reward raised to $30.

I feel ya. I lost over $1000 in Pike/Muskie Lures at Estes 3 years ago. It also had a water proof camera. (coming back from a pike trip I stopped at the lake for a few casts) I left it sitting behind my truck, drove off, woke up, went to Pella looked in the truck and said quite a few words that I can't type on here. The good news is, I knew which expesive lures to buy again that caught fish and didn't ever have to spend $ on the bad ones. The bad news is........ Well, I lost alot of stuff that cost ALOT of money. I hope you get it back. I checked Craiglist for months all over the state and surrounding states. No Luck.
