Sorry to hear about your friend.

I think there are several molds and a lead pot. Not positive about the pot tho.

I want to let everyone know that I haven't had a chance to get to Bob's and do an inventory. I talked withDan and we compared schedules and it will be the second week of March at the earliest we can get together. I will get an inventory. I am sure most of the things wanted he will have. Thanks for the PM's and replies.

I am going to Bob's tomorrow and we'll inventory his tackle. I'll bring back as much as I can that has been listed by all of you. I'll probably bring a lot more back that hasn't been listed. Let me know if there is anything else you might want. Bob mainly fished for bass so his tackle will be geared for bass. Thanks to all for your patience. Alan

Thanks Mike, I think Jo is ready to move on with her life. She is ready to move closer to her family.

I saw some big worms but I couldn't get to them. They were on a wall and tons of totes in front of them. I'll try next trip. Do you have a preference to brand?

Most of the rods are 6 to 6.5 ft. I didn't bring many back. I did find 12 do it molds. Some are unused and some has corrosion. I'll post the information tomorrow.

Crankbaits and jerkbaits.

I brought back several rod/reel combos. There are a lot of casting and spinning rods there. We just didn't get a chance to gt to them today. I did bring back about 600 crankbaits. that is only a small part of his collection.

I did find one rod/reel combo you might want. I know the reel is an ambassadeur 5600c. I can't remember the rod....I will post pics tomorrow.

I am kicking the idea around to go to the flea market at the fair grounds in Nashville. Probably won't be until May. I have to make about 200 crappie jigs for myself and get to fishing. I could maybe get a bunch of Bob's stuff and set up somewhere. If I knew I could get enough people to show I would do it. But not in April......lol pics coming soon......... maybe today
