My neighbor's kid is turning 13 in a few weeks...kid is obsessed with fishing. Any gift ideas that a young fisherman might need? Probably $50 or less

Thanks for the help

ETA
Don't know if it matters but I'm pretty sure he only freshwater fishes.

Does he have a good tackle bag?

A gift card for some tackle would be solid too.

Academy has about 15 baitcasters that would be fine for a young fisherman all between the price of $40 and $60.

I was thinking a tackle bag. Backpack or just one to throw over a shoulder?

A lot of the young kids who fish fresh water wear backpack tackle bags. I see them all the time in my neighborhood. I’m going to get one for my kid for his birthday.

This!

I used to have a pair of electrical scissors in the belt holster just for that but in always afraid they'd fall out.

Also liked the retractable reel with the golf towels with the rings attached.

That or a real comfortable lifejacket. If they are on the Easter a lot.
