Fishing tackle is an art form and all fish caught on the right tackle are"Gfish"!

Just returned from the Post Office a few moments ago.

Sent a small plastic box of 11 parts for a Penn 704 reel from California to Connecticut.

The charge was $9.45!

This parcel with the padded envelope weighed .04 of an ounce.  Not 4 ounces.  4/tenths of an ounce.

I use Priority mail (padded) flat rate envelopes to ship boxed items that will fit.

When I started doing this a medium priority flat rate box was roughly $15.75, and the priority envelope roughly $9.75.

Just a few years later one is looking at over $24 to ship the same box, and $14 for the envelope.

At least the savings on the envelope is something still possible.
