Organizing my tackle box.

Getting ready for a trip to Catalina (next week) and organizing (somewhat) my tackle box. I use one side of the box for my bait gear and one side for artificials (including Sabilkis). Obviously the "lure side" needs some improvement. As a rule, I do not use pyramid sinkers for Catalina but I am low on one-ounce torpedos and missing almost all of the needed two-ounce torpedoes. The stores in Fresno have NO torpedo sinkers in stock. Hooks are by size — no. 8 to 2/0 Kahle (and a few larger ones for sharks) and sinkers are 1 oz. to a few 3-4 oz. I should probably just get rid of all the old hooks in the top section since I will probably never use them. I have a different tackle box for my infrequent boat trips.

EgoNonBaptiso, Hashem and I will be there Mon-Wed so I will see you Wednesday. Thanks for the offer on the sinkers but I will be picking up some together with bait at Bigfish on Sunday. I will be staying in Long Beach Sunday and Wednesday night. Going to spend one extra day staying at Redondo Beach Thursday night. Planning on hitting Hermos Beach and Redondo Beach on Thursday and possibly Santa Monica Friday morning. Unfortunately it's going to be relatively cold next week which may put a damper on the fishing. We'll see.
