I bought a huge rubbermaid 30 gallon tub, put it in the back of my truck with all my plugs, terminal stuff, spare reels, line, etc. Great idea to have eveything handy, yet I couldn't find a damn thing in there with all the crap I stuffed in it. I still managed to buy more than eels each trip.
I don't really buy plugs anymore, maybe some rubber shads. I have sort of beat the plug-bug for the time being. The bluefish that inundated the canal mid-august finished off all my pretied leaders-then my organization really went to hell, there was no time to pre0tie so the back seat of my truck became a tangle of leader material and rogue hooks.
I have put aside a nice cash chunk for gas this summer, so I should be fine there. I do plan to buy a Saltiga at some point soon though.
