Congratulations to @Steve Smith!! You are the winner of the 500 'like' random pack of baits give away!! Please message me on Instagram, Facebook, or email (in description) your shipping info and I'll get that right out to you!! Thanks again for all who watch, like and subscribe!! I appreciate each and every ONE of YOU!!!
Just like shopping in bass pro! There's always that one dude that throws the baits on the floor.🤣 Great video man👊
Can’t forget about the guy that stands on rods
@@RATSUM 🤣
🤣 Appreciate you watching! 👊
Think thats bad. I have someone hiding the good stuff (colors, clearance, etc) behind and under other less desirable lures at one of my local stores. Drives me nuts!
Can I go shopping in your tackle room too?? Great video!
🤣 Appreciate you watching Matthew! 👊
Favorite series on TH-cam!!!👊
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
I have about 10 bags of soft plastics in my back pack. To save on weight, I decided to mix my colors of the baits. For example in my stick bait bag, I have 3 each of 4 colors. Same for craws, bugs, and swim baits. Lightens my load significantly, especially when I’m only out for an hour or two at a time.
Haha too funny "shopping" in your own tackle room. I'm not sure how many bags of soft plastics I take when I go bank fishing but I think it is similar to how many soft plastics you chose, I'll count next time. Great video as always, really liked hearing how you condensed 60,000 bags of soft plastics into 27 for bank fishing. 👍👍👍👍
🤣 60k...I guess it could be close to that, lol Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Great ideas for my new backpack; thanks ! Tight lines, brother!
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
The lunker log is my favorite stickbait. I like to through the green pumpkin blue color.
Appreciate you watching Dylan! 👊
Good selection... I could catch fish on that selection about everywhere I go. Nice job!!
Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching Walt! 👊
I usually take more than I need with me. Take a small bag with essentials and go back to the truck for any changes. I take too much with me. I need to pick 3-4 and just use them to get familiar and build confidence in them. Another reason I should take less is I am usually limited on time. I am an after work till dark fisherman. You did cover pretty much all the bases. Good video, Jim👍👍
I agree with you, gaining some confidence in a lure is huge! Appreciate you watching Leanne!
Love it, he says dont take too many options and yet packs 26 packs of baits 😆 dont worry I got that problem too.
Lol, well it's much less than I would normally pack! Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Don’t we ALL have that problem, or we wouldn’t be here?👌🏼👌🏼😁😁😁
If I had to add one thing it would be the Zman Bang Stickz. For a pond kit you can save some space using these as you can cut them in half for neds or use them full length for stick baits and shaky heads. Pretty good series Jim and I think you would have everything you could need for a good day on the water.
That's a great tip brother...appreciate you sharing! 👊💪
I love watching videos like this about tackle it really helps me out on if I wanna pack all my lures
Appreciate you watching! 👊
@@TackleJunky81 anytime good vibes🤙🏻
Great video, looking forward to throwing some of those baits.
Thank you Alan! 👊
Gave me some good ideas to add to my tool box if plastics!
👊💪
Can’t have enough baits! But I like the way pared it down to a few! You are right can never go wrong with green pumpkin and black and blue.
For sure brother! Appreciate you watching! 👊
great video to wake up to!! hardest part for me is picking what i want to take
Thank you brother! It's hard to keep it simple with so many great choices. 👊
Just made a video like this myself actually haha. Nice video man!
love the videos--keep em coming. getting me pumped for warmer weather.
Appreciate you watching Michael! 👊
Love your channel, I get a ton of ideas from you!! Thanks
My pleasure and I appreciate you watching brother! 👊
A boot tail is the one the best chatter bait trailers if you put the boot tail on up siide down with the tail sticking up. works for me like a champ in waters around my way ( NC).
Man, you're the tackle junky for sure haha. Thanks for info & vids.
Lol, appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Fan-BASS-Tic!
Tons of great information. PLUS good to know my colors are strong (pretty much by luck)!
Appreciate you watching Roger! 👊
Morning Jim, good stuff for a crappy morning 😆 23 degrees and sleeting like there is no tomorrow. Stay warm brother 🎣
Hey Bob, I've had my fill of this weather as well. Appreciate you watching! 👊
Good choice to carry. I always take at least 10-15. Always better to have too many then leaving the right one at home. 👊🏻
I hear that brother! 👊💪
Can’t beat a new video first thing in the morning while at work lol
Don't work to hard brother, lol Appreciate you watching! 👊
Nicely done, love those soft plastics.
You've got a better supply of baits than many shops, 👍
Appreciate you watching Rob! 👊
That’s a lot! I don’t believe I have that much in my bag. Hmmm....maybe I need another bag. Great job TJ. Thanks brother.
Appreciate you watching J! 👊
Can’t wait to see how they fit in top compartment of backpack! Could be close. But got to have a couple tubes #👍
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Hit em with the early morning upload 💪🏻. I tend to grab 5-10 bags when I go. If I run out I run out lol #minimalist Great video boss #tacklejunkie
Hey that works too brother, lol Appreciate you watching! 👊
Always take more than I need, and never seem to remember to change color or styles :) tackle room is looking good. 👍
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Got to love it when you can go “shopping” at home for the baits! Great video brother!👊
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
MAN FISHING HAS COME A LONG WAY....I AM GOING TO GET BACK INTO IT THIS YEAR....HAD NO CLUE ALL THIS STUFF WAS OUT THERE....WHAT HAPPEND TO THE DAYS OF FISHING WITH WORMS....LOL.....SURE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT SETUP YOUR PUTTING TOGETHER....NICE.
It sure has brother. I believe we make it more confusing though than it has to be, lol
Hard to pack light on soft plastics. I usually leave the majority of them in my truck and take a few out if I am bank fishing
That's a good idea as well. 👊
Another awesome Vid. Keep them coming. 👊🏻
Appreciate you watching Chad! 👊
Tell the truth Jim,,, that little white basket won’t what you wanted to use!!! You really wanted that big orange Home Depot lumber cart 😂😂😂. Enjoyed the video!!
🤣🤣🤣 You know me pretty well!
The EDGE Boxes are so much better than the Bass Mafia boxes. The BM boxes are always, always popping open when I hit rough water. EDGE for me.
The soft plastic shopping with GoPro was like a VR shopping trip.
On the dye do you get garlic or unscented. If you could make a video going over treble hooks that would be awesome. Like explaining sizes, bends,shanks,feathers,sizes for different lures,feathers,etc. That would be awesome since I haven’t really seen anyone go over treble hooks.
Hey Thomas, the dye has a garlic scent. I do have videos on treble hooks, but I'll see if I can make an updated one. 👊
Man you’ve got me chomping at the bit wanting to beat the water down for the fish !!! Just a bit cold ! Rest assure there will come a day !!! You know !!! Lol !!!
I hear that man...I've had my fill of winter! Stay warm! 👊💪
Great video. I like how you combined both videos. I usually take about 15 to 20 bags with me. Keeping it simple.👍👊💪
Thank you James! 👊
Good video I take about the same when I go Bank Fishing 🎣 👊
Thanks man! 👊
Good stuff the dye is a great tip for soft plastics.
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Another great video, I would compare this to when I get out in the Kayak fishing but I pack less as it forces me to fish with focus. Swimbait, crawfish bait and a senko or worm. 🎣👊👍
Hey TJ: Those are 27 great choices. As for me out kayak bassin' in weeds, I focus on Texas-rigged 5" Senkos and 3.8" swimbaits for searching.
Hey Larry, tough to beat a senko and swimbait...great choices as well. 👊
I preach that Plasma Tail on the back of a chatterbait! Learned about it here and it catches fish!
For sure! 👊
Those are some solid picks Jim! The VileBug is definitely one of my favorites and hard to argue agains the Rage Craw, best craw around. I like fishing it on a keel weighted swim bait hook.
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
I love this series. Suits my fishing style
Appreciate you watching John! 👊
I want it all.
I want it all.
I want it all and I want it now.
Lol
I like how you don't seem biased toward just one brand of soft plastics.
I have my favorites, but I like to use a little bit of everything.
Episode 5! Here for the show!
Appreciate you watching! 👊
Looking good man!!! 👊
Appreciate you watching brother! Hope all is well! 👊
Best series out there! #TRBound 👊🏻
👊💪
This is kinda how I try to pack my bag for bank fishing or when I'm going on someone else's boat. I need to upgrade the backpack to an actual Plano bag or something to fit more than 2 plano's and a few bags of plastic.
Loving this series!
I'm trying to get you guys a discount over at Plano. Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Always good stuff bro! Tnx!!
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Loving the info. Plastics are my fav type of fishing for sure. My top fish including my PB have come on plastics! Thanks for the vid!
Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching Philip! 👊
Awesome break down! You definitely covered all the bases with your selections.
Appreciate you watching Jeff! 👊
Favorite bait of all time havoc pit boss
Good choice! 👊
That about covers it. Plenty of options and techniques ther. You did good.
Appreciate you watching Mark! 👊
I carry a large kvd speed bag and one 3600 size hardbait box. As well as a smaller box for terminal tackle. So about the same amount of soft plastics as you had here 🤙🏼👊🏻
Good deal brother! 👊
Love these series great info for beginners and everyone in between 👍 As for baits I would definitely have some of those lakefork stick baits for sure a beaver style and craw style along with a curly tail worm and swimbait. My color options would be Green pumpkin black N blue and blue craw or magic craw.
Appreciate you watching James! 👊
These videos are getting me excited for spring fishing if this Ice would ever melt here in Iowa
I hear ya brother... snowing again here today. Appreciate you watching! 👊
You got me to upgrade to the edge plano boxes a year ago and man it has been great. And love that Vile Bug
I'm glad to hear that you're diggin em man! Appreciate you watching! 👊
I am really loving this series!!!
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Love the approach there man, good ideas on take enough but not too much! That’s something I need to do better with. I tend to take too much
Appreciate you watching Tristan! 👊
I don’t generally carry the same color soft plastics and most of the time not the same brands of them. I just buy two toned colored ones that are simple and work effectively. A worm,chunk,swimbait,craw,creature,and a Ned style baits is all I ever carry. I haven’t honed in on any that I really use as a good overall plastic besides the eeliminator and the krackin craw. My plan is to use them until I run out and then decide if it’s worth looking into other brands and styles of them. Right now I would have to say the keitech swimming impact regular size isn’t worth getting because it’s so small they really only add action and don’t have much bulk and they tear in half very easily because they are so thin.
Good stuff. Love the edge boxes. Got terminal box jig chatterbait box and small crankbait box. They work perfect.
For sure brother! 👊
Great video. I always enjoy watching.
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Great series can't wait to start using these things
Appreciate you watching Matt! 👊
Awesome vid and great way to minimize for the pond hoppers 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you brother! 👊
Thanks for the vid helping with my kayak storage
My pleasure and I appreciate you watching! 👊
I most definitely need to build myself a tackle room👊
Do it brother! 👊
Love the explinations for why you chose each one. I learned alot. Btw, the Red Shad ribbon tail is the color I caught my pb on.
Also to add, I pack extremely light when I go out fishing, so I usually only take 2 or 3 packs of soft plastics with me. I dont like carrying a lot of tackle, I would get overwhelmed with choices, so I choose one specific method for the day and just carrying the corresponding tackle. I usually carry my crappie jigs and pole and then a pole for bass fishing.
Appreciate you watching brother! Red Shad is a killer color for the lakes I fish as well. 👊
Great video! Wish I had seen it a couple of years ago when I first decide to take up fishing once again . Would have saved me a room full of baits, except, of course, I like having a room full of baits (and rods and reels of course) 😏
I like having a room full of baits as well, lol
Dang it! Another shopping list. Great video Man. I am sure it is helpful to more than just me. Love the content and info👊
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Waiting to see how you pack everything into something you can carry all day long.
Coming soon brother! 👊
I was thinking the same thing as the basket was filling with clam shells of plastics. 😊
My problem too. Besides being a newbie pond hopping and not knowing what water I will come to next.... I’m disabled.
Keep it up!!! Let’s make this man a full time TH-camr!!
Appreciate you watching Joshua! 👊
Slowly but surely turning my closet into a tackle room😂
👊💪
Can't wait until my tackle room looks like that! Great video man!
Appreciate you watching Paul! 👊
Great breakdown. Can’t beat a senko!
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
TJ try the rsage shad and i bet you put the rage toad up and the rage shad becomes a staple on your boat when throwing top water plastics.
Great video to get my mind right... off work and on fishin. Lol
For sure brother! 👊
Great video, brother I’m jealous of your tackle room.
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Great video. Lots of good info in it.
Thank you Andrew! 👊
Another good video Jim!
Thank you brother! 👊
I'd say I usually pack around 25 packs of soft plastics on average. I use to carry a whole lot more but I've been trying to scale back how much I carry. Nowadays I generally try to bring no more than 5 varieties for each type of plastic I plan on fishing that day. Five drop shot options, five for ned, five swimbait, five craws, five stick baits, and then maybe five miscellaneous baits for trailer options or that "something different" like a pack of tubes, lizards, curl tail grubs, frogs.
That's a good system buddy! 👊
I need a tackle room!
👊💪
Great vid as usual. I have the Berkley soft bait binder. Works well for me.
I used a binder for years. Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
The coppertruse finesse TRD kills it where I live in MI...I never leave home without that color. I usually take 15-20 bags of assorted things with me in my pond backpack.
I love that color as well. Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Great review on the baits. 👊
Thank you Karl! 👊
I do my baits by technique. I have a bag for my worms swim and jerkbaits Ned Rig Tubes and Craws and Creatures. Then in the portable center console for my kayak I have my senkos and then my milk crate with my tackle trays
Sounds like a good system! 👊
Bro great series! I’m looking forward to seeing what kind of pack your putting everything in. I typically carry 18-25 packs of plastics myself but I tend to over pack lol keep up the great information bud! 👊🏻💪🏻
Thanks man and I appreciate you watching! 👊
Well my 👍🏻 was #500!
Another great video and definitely going to get some of these baits to try
Killer video man keep up this energy. Love it.
Appreciate you watching Darren! 👊
This is one of your best videos I feel II really like how you think.
Appreciate the feedback brother and thanks for watching! 👊
Simon. I felt the same way and I’m a brand newbie i. e haven’t even caught a fish yet! But it really understood what he was getting at AND UNDERSTOOD!! Tomorrow is change all my packed stuff and redo,and reduce it day!!!!
You have more fishing tackle than my local shop has had all year. :D
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
Nice video not what I was expecting but fun watching. 👍
Appreciate you watching! 👊
Love it bro switching everything over to plano edge this year
You'll dig em brother! 👊
Luckey dog!!
Love this series man keep up the good work
Thank you Simon! 👊
I admit, I take far too many soft plastics in the kayak,and really need to do this before I make it back to the lake this year. Great video #getTj81toTablerock
Appreciate you watching brother! 👊
