This is a very easy mini tackle box that takes about 15 minutes to make.  It includes the gear I use to catch trout from a stream, minus the pole, reel, net, pliers and hip waders.  Although I include spinners in the tackle box, my preferred bait is nightcrawlers (worms).  Crickets  and other small insects are also effective baits.
