11
items All mine and the fams favorite fishing gear. From best bass baits to poles and must have extras. These will make your next trip more tolerable even if you don't catch a thing.
Ok so I believe the name is Kellys purple fire tail but there are many different brands. As long as it's people with a neon pink tail it will hit. This is THE BASS BAIT of the millennium. There's no better bait for bass.
Creme Scoundrel Worm - 6'' - Purple Firetail
We love to get these for the kids cause they're legit decent poles with good reels but they're small enough for the kiddos
Crappie Fishing Poles(381) - Walmart
We use ones similar to these but slightly different to keep the fish alive to take them home after we are through and transplant them into our own pond at home.
Fishing Baskets
We use these with the kids when we night fish obviously they can't see them at night and aren't good at judging when they have one on by feel. They're great
Lighted Fishing Bobbers
I am a huge fan of the ugly stik brand of reel and poles. I had a green one that lasted me for years and it was smooth and very seldom bound up.
Ugly Stik Reel
Must have pole holders when fishing with the kids because you seldom get a chance to hold your own pole because your constantly helping the kids with theirs.
Fishing Rod Holders in Fishing Accessories(1000+)
So I'm not gonna lie we use something like this or if I don't have one of these I use a stick from the woods generally but these are much more handy then trying to find the perfect stick
Fish Hook Remover
So we often fish where we have to hike a little to get to the water so it's much more handy when you carry all your gear in a bag such as this rather than a clunky plastic box that comes unlatched.
Fishing Tackle Bags & Backpacks
I don't know a single serious fisherman who hasn't had to wade into the water to get to the right spot or retrieve the bait from a snag or tree limb etc. I've dove into the water myself to get a lost bobber
Men's Fishing Stockingfoot Waders & More
Everyone I knows second choice for bass around here. Never understood how or if they worked when I was small but now I've used them and see it for myself
Spinnerbaits & Buzzbaits for Bass
These are the only sinkers I've ever used and remember these containers everywhere as a kid. They're easy to use and can use several to make it heavier or lessor if you choose.
