So the girlfriend asked why I have a T5P Multiloader tackle box, when there are much smaller boxes packed like kits. Shes new to fishing and I am slowly introducing her to baits, and other fishing equipment.
Anyways, I told her for each species, and what time of year you need different bait to match the food available to the fish. So from a big, do it all box you can only really need a smaller then vest pocket worth. So to show her what I mean I packed a single Flambeau 2003 (they are about a large fly box size, I have a couple extras ontop of my box to pack for vest fishing), just thought I'd share a small fishing kit, comments, suggestions welcomed.
Not going to catch a record fish, but they are my most proven preformers (save for including dough baits and live bait in such a kit) and most of the baits small size lend themselves well to Spring/Early Summer Fishing. And in the small box they each have their own home (18 line items, 18 small divided spots).
PS, 2g Floats, Spinner Baits and a few other items are in other pockets of the vest but
