Early Spring Tackle Review! The Best New Baits And Gear For 2024!

These are the hottest new items in bass fishing for 2024! We've been testing a variety of new gear the past few months and these are the clear stand outs! From the new Shimano SLX A 70 Casting Reel, to new underspin colors, and a variety of baits, these are the best new items we've found! Let's take a look!

This is our 1st gear review of 2024 and we couldn't be more excited! There were a lot of late Fall launches this year and we've been busily testing gear throughout the Winter. Most baits didn't make the cut but there are a few standouts that do. These new Swammer sizes are clear winners, these new Strolling options are must haves, and if you're looking to protect your rods, the Rod Glove Tournament Series is the most affordable options we've found.

We've listed them in the order they appeared, and included all relevant information on favorite colors, sizes, etc. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.

Summer Gear Review! Best Soft Baits, Hard Baits, And Tackle From ICAST 2023!

ICAST 2023 was awesome! Here are the "best of the best" baits and tackle from the show! We had a blast checking out all the new gear! From Bait Finesse to big swimbaits, there was a ton of of exciting new gear on display. We've spent every day since buying and testing as much gear as possible and today we're taking an in-depth look at the "best of the best"!

It's easy to get caught up in the hype when you're at ICAST. Even watching the coverage from home can be dangerous to your wallet. In reality, you really don't know what you're getting until someone puts time on the water with the gear and cuts through the hype. We've been hard at work doing exactly that, and can't wait to show you some of this gear!

This ICAST was more impressive than most! There were so many awesome new products on display that we had to break this gear review into multiple segments. If you missed the "rods and reels" portion that aired on Wednesday, you'll find a link to it below. You'll also find links to all the baits and equipment in today's video, listed in the order they appeared. We've even included our favorite sizes and colors where applicable.

BUYER'S GUIDE: Tackle Storage, Gear Protection, and Line Management!

Tackle Management is critical! Keeping your gear safe and easily accessible is one of the most time consuming jobs an angler has both on and off the water. Through the years we've narrowed down the gear we rely on to properly protect our gear both at home and on the water. Whether you're walking the shore, hopping on a plane, or getting in the boat, these are items we trust. 

Tackle storage at home, on the boat, traveling between vehicles, and while traveling on major trips, all requires different equipment. Its easy to spend a fortune on tackle management solutions so we're here to help narrow it down for you. Each of these items came out of our personal gear and is an item that has tangibly helped us stay more organized. 

If any of these items stand out to you, you can find them linked below. We've listed them in the order they appeared in the video to help you find the right items quickly. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
