Found this Wille Bait File with 67 nice bass lures inside. It fell out of someone's boat or truck on the interstate, no name or number on it, but it has a score written on it. Must have belonged to a Pro bass fisherman.

Awsome Find Dano.

You could probably check the Lost & Found in your Local Paper on that one.

MAY be a Sizable Reward.

OF Course, Being it was Lost on the Interstate. They may not have Known, When or Where they Lost it.

Either way.
CONGRATS !
