Default Beach Combing

Anybody do any beach combing? I found this stuff one day along a good 500 ft of untouched shore. The water was really low last fall due to a Minnesota drought. It was easy walking and easy finding. It was a blast.

Yes..my 2nd box is from "Beach combing." I sell the lures for 1.00 each at out bi annual yard sale ..unless I use the lures I found. 90% of my lures have been found.

When the fish are not biting ,I push my jon into lakes that do not have ramps and pick the lures and bobbers off the trees. You would not beleive what I've got.

At least 30 rattle traps
5 zara spooks
3 great rods and reels. where drunks have forgotten them and drove off.
countless bobbers
lots of spinner baits, crank baits...all my minus ones 5 at least
beatle spins....
My last garage sale a man offered me 50.00 ..honest I took it. and have since then filled another box.

That's pretty cool chuck, all the ones that I found have rusted hooks. I did pretty good for a 792 acre lake with very few fisherman. There's barely any snow up here and the lakes should be low again this year.

Mines easy..In Florid awe have these deep pits. You can easily cast across them.They are too small for a boat ramp .Since guys can cast across they often hang up in trees. I push my little jon into the pit and have fun when the fish are not biting. I keep up with them so the hooks are all nice. Later on I'll take a picture of what I've found this year...
I'll be honest too.It's amazing. It may not be too much as I just sold a lot last summer.

That is not including the many bass hooks and weights I snip off or Beatle spins...along with 3 nice rods and reels.

Here's some close ups.

It kinda gives you an idea of what other people are using because I found about two of each and it looks like you did too. I find all mine on the ground so the hooks rust pretty quickly. Also found a lot of garbage, that's kinda sad to see that people just litter like they do.
