This HUGE fishing lot includes everything you see in the pictures plus a little more I couldn't fit in all the shots without going over the amount of pictures Ebay initially allows you to have. The conditions of items in this auction range from a few being in fair condition, to most being in good to very good/new condition to many more being mint and brand new in the box. All of these were my father's who passed away 3 years ago. I don't know exactly how old these items are, but my father started using live bait most of the time he fished starting in the late 80's to very early 90's and he quit buying lures about that time or very rarely thereafter. So most of these I guess would be vintage or starting to get to that mark by now.

The main piece of the lot is the large tackle box with the sliding drawers in the front. This box has over 180 regular size lures in the drawers alone and many smaller lures and things I didn't count but tried to show in the photos. PLUS even more lures (mostly new in the packages as shown) and many hooks, jigs, soft lures, weights, floats, beads, swivels, a sharpening file, trolling line sinkers and more. It was after trying to keep count and list all this that I decided to let the pictures do the talking for this and the rest of the lot... There's a few things that got either melted or something spilled on them and stuck them to the box in the top most compartment below the lid. One spinning lure (I think the others are fine) and what looks like a tiny amount of glue in the very bottom of the compartment (pictured). Otherwise, the items in this box are great and the tackle box itself has plenty of life left in it.

The next picture after the one showing the outside of the previously mentioned Plano box is a smaller box I purchased to contain some of the other loose lures lying around on shelves in storage. Some of these items that are in the packages (such as the jigs, split rings and bullet weights) I put in the pictured cardboard box after taking pictures. It contains yet more lures and items I tried to get the best pictures of in a couple of shots. The cardboard box has mostly brand new lures and a number of feathered buckhead jigs as well as brand new spoons, another directional trolling line sinker, a weighing scale and a few other items.

But, there's still two more older tackle boxes to go. The first is a double sided Plano box that contains quite a few 1/2 oz. jigs and a few other assorted things, and the other side of the box contains weights, many hooks, a few more jigs, etc. as pictured. The last box is an older Rebel tackle box. One latch is broken. The only lures from this box that I think are less than acceptable are the Red Fins that have paint stripped off their middle sections, but I decided to leave them in the box anyway. The rest are mostly in very good condition and some are very new looking.

I tried my very best to get the most detailed and accurate pictures and to give the most accurate description of this collection for your consideration. I think it would make a fisherman very happy for YEARS to come!

I also found a new spray bottle of Yum brand bait scent and threw it in the shipping box last second. I don't know if it's still good, but I'll assume it is (hopefully, anyway) and leave it to the buyer to experiment and find out ;)

All these item are very well packaged and ready to go to the buyer weighing in at a total of 57 lbs.
