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.
Post-El Salto, Crankbait-Laden, Tackle Warehouse Unboxing – Summer 2023
Before I leave El Salto, I take an inventory of which lures I need to replenish. I check key categories to make sure that they’re well-stocked in the right colors. Our 2023 trip was heavy on cranking. Tackle Warehouse had a sale a few weeks out after we returned. Here’s my unboxing.
Post-El Salto, Pre-ICAST Tackle Warehouse Unboxing
As we’ve written before, we keep a hefty stash of tackle at Anglers Inn for our return visits to the lake, but after each trip we undergo a semi-methodical restocking. Our June 2022 trip amplified the need to order some more hard baits and swimbaits, and fortunately Tackle Warehouse started a sale just a few days after our June 25 return. Check out what I bought and why.
