Here are some of the new accessories that caught our eyes: Tackle storage options continue to expand, with more soft-sided bags, bulk storage boxes, utilities and traditional hip-roof boxes added to the lineup.

It has hand-warmer pockets that zip closed.If you like fishing gadgets- and what bass angler doesn't - you're going to like some of the accessories that will appear in tackle shops this season.įor example, several companies have come up with more and better quality pliers, scissors and fix-up gizmos designed to make fishing more fun and efficient. The jacket has a big lure-box pocket in front, right where it’s needed. I had no problem adjusting its low- profile cordlocks with one hand. My arms stayed dry while releasing fish, thanks to the cinch on its cuffs. I loved that it folds up into its own hand-warmer pocket. _($59 80 _Īfter a few stormy days on the water wearing the Gore-Tex PacLite Stowaway Wading Jacket from L.L. They have a tough non-marring sole, side zippers, a one-way valve that purges water as you walk and an enclosed toe. Hodgman Flats Stalker Wading Shoes (first designed for Southern wade-fishing) worked well for me as general-purpose wade/boat shoes last summer. The stuff repels moisture, leaves a scentless, invisible film and gets things moving again. Imagine a lubricant that can be used on anything on your boat, or, for that matter, on anything that slides, spins or turns, and you’ll understand what the Ultra-Pro lubricant can do. The transducer has metal “wet switch” pins that activate it when it hits the water, and these will corrode after saltwater use if not rinsed in fresh water.Īnother potential problem: That little green floating transducer looks an awful lot like a frog wobbling across the surface, so don’t be surprised if a lunker bass gulps it down. I checked it out in the brackish depths of the Little Manatee River near Tampa and found it drawing the contours just as accurately as the big color machine on my boat. The unit works fine in both fresh and salt water. Mode buttons allow you to change the sensitivity and depth range and to turn on a “fish alarm.” The LCD’s readout gives both contour and numeric depth on a screen the size of a sports watch. The Smartcast RF30 is a combination device made up of a tiny LCD depth finder you wear on your wrist and a transducer that ties to fishing line and casts out like a lure. It’ll weigh fish up to 25 pounds, has a two-year battery life and vinyl padding rather than bare metal…and it floats. The weights of five fish can be stored in its memory. The gripNweigh from X-Tools is a fish gripper with a digital readout scale and watertight electronics.
