The Outdoor Gear We Recommend
We may have a little bit of a hoarding problem. Good gear need not be expensive, but it has to improve the experience in some way. Whether it’s the right rod, a certain bait, or the world’s best rainsuit, we’ll give unfiltered opinions on what we use and why we use it.
No tackle shop on earth provides more specialized gear for bass than Tackle Warehouse. If you want it, they've got it in stock — whether it's a proven winner or the newest items on the market — and their service is exceptional.
Megabass Sleeper Baits and Special Run Colors With Lin Bell
Lin Bell has been a Megabass dealer for 30 years and is deeply connected to the brand. He gets two shipments a month, so the best producers tend to stay in stock. Full pegs mean that it’s not always easy to tell what is working best – but Lin is an open book. I asked him to talk about some sleeper baits and new colors.
Tidal River Glide Bait Tackle With Daniel Jones
Daniel Jones was kind enough to take me out on the Chickahominy River to give me an in-person glide bait lesson. Eventually I made him get down to business and spill the goods on his preferred tackle for this big fish producer. I saw it firsthand, so I know he’s telling the truth.
