This lipless hybrid crank bait features the multi depth option like a blade bait but with the body of your classic lipless crank. This small 1/8 oz lure packs a punch. I've only used it in freshwater myself but I've seen people catch some crazy stuff...

These real wax worms are preserved so you don't have to worry about them dying on you. They're soft and juicy just like the live ones and make perfect emergency bait. Just pack one in your fishing bag or tackle box and you're set.

Great inline spinners. All the ones I've used have been perfectly balanced. The half silver half gold blade is a nice touch. I use the 1/8oz on my ultralight and get some great distance. Bass, Sunfish, Perch, Pickerel, and Trout love them.

A great company for ultralight & BFS gear. Their plastics are super stretchy and will last a really long time. Their jigs come in 1/64oz and up and they all come equipped with a bait keeper.

The Jack worm is an awesome finesse worm that's 3.9" long and features a curly tail. If you don't like the curly tail just simply cut it off and use it as a regular worm. This plastic is killer in a variety of applications.

Micro weedless hooks are so fun. I Texas rigged these 3" worms and was pulling up slab bluegill one after another. These hooks are great finesse items. They come in size #10 and up

These affordable ultralight rods look really nice and are built tough. They come in 6'-11' long and have smooth casting and a crazy bend. I use the 9 footer for ultralight surf fishing and have caught huge summer flounder (Fluke) on it. I've included...

This line is thin, but very strong, and very sensitive to bites. One of the best braids on the market. I've caught 10-15lb fish on the 6lb braid. Their breaking strength is very high.

A great light weight budget reel. I use the 1000 on my ultralight in both freshwater and saltwater and it's held up really well.
