Below are a list of things that you can do to take advantage of bad weather.  Stormy days are great, they help you spend more time fishing. 

Rig -  Get out your leaders, get out your hooks, get out your swivels, get our your yoyo's, get out your ziplock bags, get out your bread ties.  Start rigging like a mad man (or woman #girlswhofish). 

Study Your Logbook -  Ok, so you've been writing in your logbook for months and years, now is the time to actually study it.  Read through it. Look for patterns, who would have thought, a storm pass by and you come out the other side as a better fisherman. 

Do Boat Maintenance - Get a tarp and get on it.  The second this storm passes by you are going to be ready. 

Do Reel Maintenance-  Reels need love too!  Crank up youtube or use one of the guides below!

Get Tackle Together - Go to the Container Store, Walmart, or use Amazon to get your tackle organized the way you want it.  Is it by species?  Is it by season?  Is it by boat?  Is it by something else?  We don't know but you do. 

Take Care Of Future Obligations - Stormy days are good days to check off your to do list.  You know the things that make you feel guilty about going fishing because you didn't get these done.  (Wait did you even feel guilty?  Probably not but still). 

Plan Your Next Fishing Trip With Buddies - Have you and your buddies been talking about an epic fishing vacation? This is the time to start making plans that will turn that trip into a reality.
