Great video
Timely. This is exactly what I have been doing the last few days. I have narrowed down to one medium spinning rod for Ned and wacky. One MH for casting with a flouro reel and a braid reel. I too got tired of too many options and too many rods. I have really narrowed down my tackle to what techniques I actually enjoy, not what the pros do.
So true on the terminal tackle… I got a bait mafia coffin 3700 and realized I still didn't have enough slots for every single hook in each specific size. And I just thought wait do I even use all of this stuff? Do I need to bring EVERY size EWG 1/0-5/0 on my kayak?
Nope.
But I like having more 110s than fit in my box
2:38 BUY Berkley Vanish regular spools of fluorocarbon for leader material. This is dirt cheap and is all that is ever needed for leader. Nobody should be buying fluorocarbon leader spools unless, maybe, professional tournament fishing saltwater.
Buy stren original (few other choices are good like academy sports h2o and SeaKnight monster blade) for spools for mono leader and keep in mind mono leader is better most of the time vs fluro – you don't really need to worry about stretch in leader length.
I have minimal rods and reels, but was a lure junky, even though I use the same dozen or so lures 95% of the time. With new lure prices lately, I've broken that silly habit!
60 years here
For me, i either go out to catch fish(go with my confident baits) or im out to practice something new. It helps me decide easily what tackle to use that day. I usually dont blame what im throwing, i assume im not presenting it properly.
Keep it Simple….nowadays its crazy how much non-sense stuff there is out there just for bass fishing. I was reading a bait description by a bait making company and the new words they are currently adding to describe their new soft plastics are FFS and "video game bait". LOL
Nice job simplifying colors down to a muddy water and clear water option… Where does white fit in there? That seems to be the most popular swimbait/fluke color by far. Where does that fall in your system?
👀👀👍🔥🔥👍
I'm guilty as sin when it comes to toting around excess tackle and rods/reels… I've been getting better at cutting back but still have a little to much.
I needed this video about 10 years and $500k ago 😅
Should have watched this before I went down the tackle and gear rabbit hole 🤣
I just buy old fashioned mono tippet spools at Walmart.
I fish dirty water/grass lake mostly so 12 lb tippet.
I do have a couple of rigs for a clearer water deep water lakes.
Nothing beats time on the water. I rather have 10 hours fishing with 2 small boxes of tackle than 10 large boxes of tackle and 2 hours of fishing. Skip the huge assortments of tackle, and use that time spent shopping or researching to fish instead and money saved on gas, food, etc so you can get out on the water as much as possible.
Wish this video would’ve come out 2 weeks ago. 😔. I’m fairly new to the sport, so after watching quite a few videos on what would need to fish at different times of the year, I ended up spending a good amount of money on two/three of everything. This is the video I was really looking for a few weeks ago. Just what a guy needs to get a good start, not so much, what the color of the water is, multiplied by the temperature, divided by the depth etc. 😆
Nathan, no white/pearl/bone color baits (hard or soft plastics)?
With over 70 bagillion bait colors, contrasts and styles it can be extremely overwhelming for any new angler. I’ve spent countless hours just sifting and weeding through so much it makes my brain hurt just thinking about it. It’s always good to get back to basics and just catch fish. Keep up the great content!
Right. Why don’t you take away hookers and booze next? What a buzzkill. I need a reason to live!
I have 4 rods. 5 Plano box's and that is it. I catch quite a few fish. Great advice. 😊
Tackle and lures are meant to catch fishermen not fish. Watch your back tackle manufactures will not like your video.
Love it! Since I'm an OLD (70+) kayak fisher, these tips are Fan-BASS-Tic! Thanks!

As someone who fell down that rabbit hole. Great video my man
You make me want to start my own channel
I haven't bought a new plug in over two years. I usually just fish with plugs that are painted baitfish colors like bluegill and perch and only two colored Senkos. One of them is pink and I don't remember the name of the other except it is brown with flakes. They are both only three inches.
Actually pretty cool vid
Let’s all be honest, all u need is a pack of senkos and some hooks…maybe a sinker.
Ignore the fact that I have 47 tackle boxes 😂 24 rods n reels. Beats buying beer.
Ya we Gotta save up for 30k FFS unit, better decrease the crank bait budget.
Honesty is the best policy
Awesome info
I have bought alot of tackle. Most of the stuff I've gotten was on sale though.
I’m a huge 6th sense fan. I did the box to “build” my arsenal. Now I’m ready to sell everything because I paint my on stuff. Working on getting more molds for my soft plastics as well. Very nice video!
Really, the only ive purchased in the past year is items you suggest. 💯
That was solid advice. Great content & well taught.
