Matt's New Boat! Full Tour + Tackle, Electronics, and Storage Tips!

Come take a look inside Matt's brand new boat! Let's look under the locker lids at how he stores his tackle and what he's really fishing with! We know people are curious about the new Skeeter so today Matt is giving a full tour of the boat, a breakdown of why he picked the Skeeter FXR21, and the mindset behind how he lays out a boat for proper boat handling and tackle organization.

We're so excited about this new boat! From the brand new Yamaha SHO outboard, to the Dakota Lithiums with giant capacities, this boat is built to handle everything we can throw at it! After decades of fishing out of every kind of used boat imaginable, this is the first new bass boat he's designed from the ground up. As Matt opens up his new boat and explains his layout, pay close attention to the tackle that he carries on board the bass boat and how he organizes it to create a stabile driving and fishing platform. From boat balance to bait management, there is a lot to consider when loading your boat!

BUYER'S GUIDE: Tackle Storage, Gear Protection, and Line Management!

Tackle Management is critical! Keeping your gear safe and easily accessible is one of the most time consuming jobs an angler has both on and off the water. Through the years we've narrowed down the gear we rely on to properly protect our gear both at home and on the water. Whether you're walking the shore, hopping on a plane, or getting in the boat, these are items we trust. 

Tackle storage at home, on the boat, traveling between vehicles, and while traveling on major trips, all requires different equipment. Its easy to spend a fortune on tackle management solutions so we're here to help narrow it down for you. Each of these items came out of our personal gear and is an item that has tangibly helped us stay more organized. 

If any of these items stand out to you, you can find them linked below. We've listed them in the order they appeared in the video to help you find the right items quickly. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
