Tackle Box Essentials

I have a hook cutter lol. I have had a treble go through my hands too many times fishing for musky.

Don't forget one of the best bass lures of all time the rebel wee crayfish

Thats nuts, I would faint lol. I seen my dads friend pull a hook right through his thumb right under the fingernail. It had a dirty barb and he had to push it out more to snip off the barb to get it out. And guess what, he had no band-aids lmao

x3 on the bandaids!

These classic lures are my essentials and produce for most game fish:

2/5 oz cleo spoons in gold/purple and blue/nickel
2/5 oz daredevle spoons in red/white nickel back, yellow/red-five-diamonds brass back
inline mepps aglia spinners (#1 - #3) in gold and silver blades
square lipped crank bait (2", sunfish like colour, or something with blue)
rapala F-9 (perch or blue/silver)

Silver on clear sunny days, gold for overcast, low light and dirty water. Blue is a wildcard and seems to work when nothing else will.

in-line spinner in different sizes (mepps and Blue fox come to mind)

Jighead, and twister tails (I like white, pink and green)

Crank baits, (livetarget are nice, but rapala and storm brand are good too)

Hook, swivels, sinkers, leaders ect......

Spoons are cheap and CAN be good at times, easy to use as well cast and retreave

Top water, be it hard bait like holla-popper and jitterbug or soft bait like soft plastic frog or mouse work for most types of fish

Swim baits, storm has some nice swim baits, cast and retreive easy

Def bug spray!
Def band-aids!
Two things that are handy is a lighter and nail clippers (rather than scissors).
