Fishing season has been in full swing for a few weeks now. But it's never a bad time to get some upgrades for your tackle box. Here are some of our Must Have fishing items that you'll want to add to your gear right now. 

fishing pliers

One thing you definitely need in your tackle box is a good set of pliers. These Rapala Angler's Pliers "are constructed with durable and rust-resistant, nickel-plated, carbon steel." The pliers feature a double leaf spring which makes them very easy and convenient to use. Plus, they come with a built-in side cutter which is great for hooks and lines.

plano tackle box

You really can't go wrong with having another tackle box in your arsenal. This Plano Edge 3600 Terminal Tackle Box "is the perfect gear storage option to organize your hooks and sinkers, weights, swivels and snaps, and bait rigs." It includes 10 removable hook retainers to allow you to store quite a bit all in an easy-to-store and carry case. Plus, the clear lid allows you to take stock of what you might need or want to bring on your next trip.

Strike King Thunder Cricket Vibrating Swim Jig

If you're a bass fisher then you definitely need this jig in your tackle box. Coming in a variety of colors, this jig "features like the stainless-steel painted blade, and the Owner Jungle Flipping Hook you are sure to have exceptional hookup ratio with this crankbait."

Order it here.

Dirty Jigs Tour Level Finesse Football Jig

Another good jig for bass fishing is this Dirty Jigs Football Jig. This one is a big favorite for bass fishes and a good go-to finesse jig for bass fishing. The "football-shaped head and 60-degree flat eye makes the jig dive down and allows the hook to stand upright the entire time. Pair it with a smaller, salted soft bait for a deadly combination."

Buy it from Fish USA.

Heddon Feathered Super Spook Jr.
For a good topwater lure, you're going to love this Heddon Feathered Super Spook Jr. These work on a pretty wide variety of fish like bass, pike, and basically any predator fish. The lure is "equipped with a single rattle, helping to deliver that perfect thumping sound that will have fish unable to resist."

Water Gremlin Lead Egg Selector

Listen when it comes to weights, we really like this Water Gremlin Lead Egg Selector. This holds up to four different types of weights which allows you to have a more versatile tackle box. These EGG weights will easily slip through weeds and rocks without getting caught up. And the large smooth hole in the center allows for uninterrupted movement of the line, without the fish being able to detect the weight of the sinker.

Snag a few for yourself here.

Strike King Red Eyed Shad Tungsten 2 Tap

If you're looking for crankbait that will give you some good results then you're going to want to add this one to your tacklebox upgrade lists. The Strike King Red Eyed Shad Tungsten 2 Tap has an added tungsten sound chamber that "emits a rattle that drives fish crazy." The bait has very realistic 3D eyes which will entice the fish to come to check it out.

52 quart igloo cooler

Whether you need a place to store your beer or a place to take your catch in, you'll need a cooler. This Hard-Sided Cooler from Ace Hardware is a really great find.
