Found my gramps supplies

Lovefall · 03-25-2010, 04:58 PM

We were going through the old barn out back of my grandparents this past weekend and we found a lot of my Gramps old fishing stuff. A couple of reels and a lot of lures. I'm so excited.

I love those old wooden lures. Oh the stories they could tell.

That's great Lovefall, I have an old Schrade sheath knife that my Grandfather used for fourty years. He passed away back in the early nineties and I've carried it deer and bear hunting since then. I was always close to my Grandfather and every time I use my knife it brings back a lot of good memories. I hope your new fishing equipment does the same.

Stuff like that is so priceless. My dad died 26 years ago but I still keep a little pocketknife that he use to carry whenever we went fishing. I've never used it but it just means a lot to me.

How great! I have a lot of my grandparents outdoor things. I'm going to pass them down to my son too. Take good care of them and be sure to pass them down.

Awesome... my gramps things came up missing. Its sad but at least I still have his stories in my head! I would love to have some of his gear too. Take good care of it and be sure to hand it on down.
