do we need to have a swap meet

So its been a long winter and I am really pumped to be getting some fishing in this spring. Hopefully things go same or better than last year.

just wondered if any of you guys have dropped some cash over the winter on new stuff for the spring. Probably got some stuff sitting around to collect dust. i know i do.

has there ever been a swap meet organized on here?

I have a couple big pike rods and reels that would do the trick.

I am looking for a bait casting rod and reel, I have a few ice fishing items as well as some spinning rods to trade. Also have a fly rod I could trade.

A swap meet would rule!

I had to go looking for this thread, really thought it would take off or is everyone just digging to find what they have or need?

I thought this would be a good opportunity to show and offer the fruit of my labour.
I had been making my own walleye crawler harnesses and such like a lot of fisherman do for a while but I purchased a lot of component hardware at a garage sale and one thing leads to another.

I sold on this site the jigs, moulds and paints from that purchase but there was much more. There is a couple hundred Trout style in-line spinners pre made and packaged. I've been going through them and making my own as well with Sonic, Colorado and Indiana blades.

I purchased the wire twisting tool and adding making my own Pike in-line spinners to my repertoire. I will be offering them to the board members as soon as I sit down and calculate the costing. They will definately cost less than those @ the major fishing stores.

This is what happens when your hobby becomes an obsession!
Friends and board members that know me I think would agree, I don't do things half heartidly so I trust you can appreciate what I have put into my lures.

I will post pictures soon for all to see, just working on a label.

I am more than happy to swap or trade but do you think nothing gets bought at "swap meets"?

I am just a fisherman who's is offering lures I have made from going to swap meets, garage sales etc to those who might appreciate them[/LEFT]
