- HOOK

- Spanggram: Tackle Box
- My rating: Easy

I love the use of the term “gone fishing” instead of just saying that I am not available. It comes back to the golden days when absent people had really packed the store and went fishing. I use it in my office -e email when I go on vacation and people always ask me what my fishing trip was.
There was no other guess with today’s search, which was very “that’s what it says on tin”, complete with any angling you would expect. My search for words began by finding “box” and then “tackle” that I put together to become the point of the day tackle box.
And from there? It was as easy as shooting fish in a barrel – like not a technical fisherman. Or advisable. Where is Bob today? Oh, he’s gone with shooting fish.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.
