Be Swift to Hear May-Jun 99 WA p. 12 R. Sexton No
Intro:
I spotted it as soon as I walked into the garage. My brown tackle box was partially opened on the shelf above the freezer. Bulging out of the tackle box was a mess of old fishing line, lures, broken and dirty spin-n-glows and some rusty treble hooks. I knew immediately what had happened---my 11 year-old son had done it again! I had told him several times not to take my tackle box with him when he went down to the river fishing. And yet here he had taken it without permission and had ruined some of my good lures! He must not have even dried them off because the hooks were already rusting!
