Buyers Guide to Tackle and Bait Updated (8/13/2021)

Buyers Guide to Tackle and Bait Updated (8/13/2021)

I was fishing the other morning along a river in the back hills of Virginia when I was thinking I should do a blog on a Buyers Guide to Tackle and Bait. I don’t always find what I am looking for when I go online looking for the right pole, hook, or gear.

I went online to shopped at two online stores and one local walmart to give you a buyers guide to Tackle and Bait.

My Cabela’s Stop

First online store I went shopping at was Cabela’s Worlds Foremost Outfitters, they had many items I would look for and online customer service is very knowledgeable. Here are a fews items I found useful.

The strong yet sensitive B’n’M Buck’s Best Ultra Light Poles are longer than standard rods, which make them ideal for jigging for crappie, bream or trout. A touch system allows user to have fingers in direct contact with the graphite to feel light bites, while providing a solid nonslip grip for ultimate control when jigging and setting the hook on tender mouths.
