Tackling your Tackle
« on: March 16, 2010, 11:08:10 PM »
Okay, everyone is still gearing up for the season. I know I need more terminal tackle. Need to clean and grease a reel among other things. Get new dock line etc; etc; etc;

My question is How many of us are really ready? What else do you need to do or need to get before that first trip? Think about it :headscra:. post it.  t^

Hopefully you can help another member out by remembering yourself.

I am pretty well set on the tackle.This year I am adding things to the kayak so that needs to be started but since the water is still to cold I won't be starting that for a couple of weeks.

I have a few older lures just like that. Don't recall the name of the company or what they called the lure.

That looks just like a Kastmaster to me.  Good for blues and bass, and in freshwater smallmouth seem to like the smaller versions.  I wonder if it's available in different colored bucktails?

I have found that if I set my splash date early in April, I normally find my self splashing by mid-late April.  Only because of everything put off till the last minute anyway.......

When I look at Bucktails attatched photo, I see a big difference.  It looks alot slimmer in width than a kastmaster.
