Are you happy with your purchase and would you buy it again? I have watched a few of the unboxing videos on youtube, and it looks like a fun way to get lures at a discount. My only gripe from the videos would be some of their lures are a lot larger than i prefer (1oz).

I got mystery tackle box as a gift for a few months. It was fun to get them but overall I didn’t find myself using the stuff. It’s hard to put together a box that’s applicable to any one area. My money was better spent just buying the stuff I actually wanted.

I have too much tackle I already don't use. I don't need more sent to my house.

Mystery tackle boxes, like most tackle, is primarily designed to catch fishermen
IMO, it is too much of a crap shoot for an old dog like me. As another poster has stated, I have too much tackle I don't use as it is. I think if you are just starting out as an avid or serious fisherman, it may be worth it, otherwise not so much. In any event, you're likely to get more stuff you don't use than otherwise.

That's what it turns into. I had it for about 9 months and cancelled it.
Out of all the boxes and baits I received, there's one bait I've tried and bought more of.

Got it for my son for a year. Fun for him to build a tackle box. He would try it all in the neighborhood lake and see what worked. Agree with everyone else though, if you have your basics covered already, it really doesn't make much sense to get.

It was great for my kids for a year, It really made them work on skills that they didn't have, and introduced them to a few new techniques. Now they have a food base to work off of and are realizing that they may need x# of packs of a certain lizard rather than spy baits.

I've had it for about 6 months now. I can say that if you're just getting into fishing, and building a tackle box, and you don't really know where to start, it's a good deal. With that being said, I don't feel like I'm really getting that much of a discount. The $14/month box usually comes with some kind of hardbait, a bag of plastics, and some kind of terminal tackle. Oh, and a sticker...
packed in the box is a list of what's inside, and the MSRP of each item. The hardbait is usually the most expensive, and most of the time, it's over $12. BUT, that does not mean that you can't go to walmart and get the same bait for $6. To put things into perspective, I got back from walmart 30 minutes ago where I picked up a lipless crank, a popper, a crankbait, a twitchbait, a walking bait and two jerkbaits for ~$20.
tl;dr
im kinda happy with it. no, i wouldnt do it again.

My buddy's 12yr old son gets the $15/month box with his yard money. He is VERY excited and on fire for bass fishing and he's using it to build his tackle kit. Spent the other weekend showing us all the stuff he collected. I think this situation is worth it.
For me, I buy about $15 of what I want every time I run to Walmart for diapers and formula...and I have lots of tackle I don't use.
