Bass Tackle Organization?
Posted on 8/21/13 at 7:10 pm
Posted on 8/21/13 at 7:10 pm
Just started fishing heavily this year, hoping to re-group for next year and hit it even harder.
I didnt start out with much tackle, but have acquired a little, and I am afraid half of it I will never use.
Before I jump into all that, I would like a way to individually organize my tackle (keep in mind this will be in a milk crate)
I am thinking of using the smaller Plano boxes (1 for spinnerbaits/buzzbaits) (1 for terminal tackle) (1 for crankbaits) (1 for topwater pop-r/frogs) (1 for jigs) (Binder for soft plastics)
After I figure this out, I need to be learned on sizes/weights of baits: I feel like my spinnerbaits are fricking obnoxiously sized.

Damn thats pretty slick. Might have to look at that soon.
I really want to cut out the stuff Im never going to use, and make room for new. What is a common buzzbait/spinnerbait weight? 1/8, 1/4?? I have a few, but they feel like im casting bricks.

For ANY fishing, salt or fresh, ain't gonna happen.

Ive got. 6'6 MH and a 7'3 H, I just have a few spinnerbaits that are massive. I actually caught a decent fish on one a few weekends ago...

I just use the clear Plano boxes to organize baits by type, then I throw all of those in a parachute bag I picked up at the military surplus store for $25.

Ive got 3 big ones now, thinking that if I went with the smaller ones I could group baits better.
I am probably wayyyy overthinking this, I have just become consumed by bass fishing since I got a kayak.

I use the big/deep ones for worm packs. I got one for flukes, one for senkos, and one for creature baits like lizards and craws.
I put ratltraps, top water, and crank sits in the thin boxes.

Im about to take some pictures and throw them up so yall can see what Im working with (or not working with)
Posted on 8/21/13 at 7:54 pm to Polar Pop
I have about 10-12, and a soft bag with the zipper pouches for plastics...
I'm probably not the best guy to take advice from on downsizing come to think of it... Good luck though.

I prefer Tupperware boxes for my plastics over binders. I keep them in bag they came in and organize by type, size, and color in the Tupperware boxes

Damn I like that Palo.
As I post these pictures, if anyone can help me weed out the stuff that I will probably never use, that would be great
Only 2 buzzbaits I have. Black one is a dollar cheapo, white one is a 3 blade strike king.
Larger spinnerbaits (1/2 oz maybe )
Smaller spinnerbaits
3 jigs (1 hand tied bucktail)
1/4 oz spoons
Terminal hooks and weights

I fish out of a Walmart sack.

I could probably do that and be just fine...I still havent learned to take the easy route.
