Tackle Storage Buyer's Guide: Which Boxes Work Best???

Tackle storage isn't glamorous but we all struggle with it. Should you use waterproof, breathable, sticky, soft sided, anti-rust or bullet proof? There are so many options on the market its almost impossible to see through the hype. Today Tim shows his favorite ways to store each type of tackle.  It ranges from general storage boxes to technique specific, to bagging his hooks by brand in heavy duty bags. If a tackle junkie can successfully store his gear, you should have no problem storing yours!

Tim has spent years buying containers to store his tackle. He's found some gimmicks along the way but more often than not he's found awesome storage solutions. He's already done the difficult part so today he's sharing the best solutions he's found that will save you time and money while you protect your gear. Whether you're trying to find a way to pack up your keitechs, or a way to dry your frogs, or perhaps a container that let's you pack in a few extra crankbaits, Tim has found a solution.

These buyer's guides are designed to simplify your gear. We covered a wide range of products in today's video but each has a specific purpose.

Buyer's Guide: Big Swimbaits, Glide Baits, and Swimbait Rods

Which swimbaits work the best? Which big baits should you try? Is there one rod that will throw every swimbait? Today's Buyer's guide is here to make your bass fishing life easier! Don't waste time with mediocre baits, focus on the proven options that put big bass in the boat every day. Matt shows his favorite picks for soft baits, hard baits, rods, and reels in today's Big Swimbait Holiday Buyer's Guide.

When it comes to soft baits Matt and Tim prefer baits with a jig hook on top. When necessary they switch to a weedless offering around thick cover. Baits like the Huddleston and Trash Fish are great in cooler water while the more rigid boot tail style baits shine year round. Color selection should be focused on imitating the prey species in your local lake but we've included a few color recommendations with each swimbait to give you a starting point.

For hard baits, we focused on a variety of different profiles. We've selected great options that imitate trout, baitfish, and panfish. No matter where you are in the country, these hard baits will help you catch giant bass. Don't be afraid to upsize your offering this year. You may be shocked to find that larger baits actually get more attention from bass and will often draw them from great distances to inspect your swimbait.

Below is a breakdown of the baits and tackle Matt discussed in the video. You'll find direct links to each product on a Tackle Warehouse, links to the hooks and rigging components when necessary, as well as to the rods and reels. These buyer's guides are designed to keep everything simple so you can share these videos with your loved ones for the holiday season.

There are some amazing budget combos this year! 3 brands have really stepped up and created amazing options for anglers looking to spend $50 on a rod or reel. We applaud these brands for making affordable gear for both entry level bass fisherman and anglers on a budget.

The past year has shown a real swing in the market. More and more brands are recognizing the influx of junior high through college anglers and are building equipment geared toward them. 3 of these brands really stand out with excellent gear for the price.

As more companies come on board with high quality gear at an entry level price our selections will grow but for 2019, these are the items that are worth investing in.
