Step 1Tackle Box

Tackle Box
our Tackle Box is one of your most important tools with out it you would have nowhere to put all of your tackle in. Tackle Boxes range from about 5-100 dollars for fresh water don't buy anything special if you are new to the art and sport of fishing. Start with a walmart special Tackle box for about 15 dollars, like my flambeau I have had this thing for 3 years and it has never failed me yet.

This is a great Instructable, but you need to add a main image of the final project to the intro step. Please do that and leave me a message when you have so that we can publish your work. Thanks!

i have a torpedo but its on the wall with my collection of mint conditions
Mar 31, 2010. 7:08 PMgeodez says:
ugly stik=good choice, cheap penn=awful. i would suggest for a person on a budget get a shimano sienna or solstace. i bet that reel has no instant anti-reverse (slower hooksets or lost fish) a shoddy drag and bail trip system (hard to use, not durable) and problably a lot of polymer parts (extremely low durabilty.)
Apr 2, 2010. 6:10 PMgeodez says:
70$ spinning reel? the shimano sienna costs 30$ along with the spirex and the shimano solstace costs 40$ along with the sonora the sedona (my grandfathers reel of choice) costs 50$. i own a solstace and a sedona, they are in my opinion, the best deal on spinning reels in the world.

I have a GREAT pole and it has LED's all over it
Apr 9, 2010. 3:18 PMgeodez says:
unless it is designed to not have a reel on it, then it is a fishing rod, fishing poles have line holders on them or just have line tied onto the end (tenakara.) what rod is it?

cool, great at night.
Jan 11, 2010. 5:10 PMvoemaster says:
what bait do you especially like one that really works?
Apr 9, 2010. 12:02 PMvoemaster says:
crappie and largemouth
Mar 31, 2010. 7:04 PMgeodez says:
the rebel crickhopper popper is better.
Apr 2, 2010. 6:11 PMgeodez says:
the crickhopper popper is more than ok, have you ever used one?
Mar 31, 2010. 7:04 PMgeodez says:
where did you get that tacke box? the tackle box by itself would be worth the 20$ in itself, let alone with all that tackle. and do i see a RAT-L-TRAP in there?
Apr 2, 2010. 6:05 PMgeodez says:
awesome deal.
Mar 31, 2010. 7:05 PMgeodez says:
ROOSTER TAIL FTW! and then there is that cotton cordell silver shad which is good too.
Apr 2, 2010. 6:05 PMgeodez says:
i love rooster tails, FTW means For The Win.

what did you catch that carp with? i want to catch one.
Aug 25, 2009. 2:50 PMspenfisher12 says:
Try sweet corn or dough bait.
Jun 26, 2009. 11:19 PMharley_rly says:
i normally wind up catchin them when sand bass fishing with Rooster Tails...why do you want to catch a carp?
Sep 6, 2009. 3:05 PMBen.land101 says:
well if you hook up with a big one (about 30+ lbs.) then it is lots of fun reeling them in. especially if you only have 10lb. line.
Sep 12, 2009. 10:43 AMharley_rly says:
ii see...ive never caught one over 3-4 lbs. where i fish, but i have seen some pretty big ones that are fed, or that are in places where your not allowed to fish
Sep 21, 2009. 12:26 PMBen.land101 says:
i know exacly what you mean. there is a pond close to my place that you cant fish in but i have seen carp longer than my wingspan.
Mar 31, 2010. 7:01 PMgeodez says:
if you want quality at a good price, use plano tackle boxes and bags.
Aug 25, 2009. 2:50 PMspenfisher12 says:
what fish is that.
