FRESHWATER / PANFISH
Panfish are the most available gamefish in North America and the most ignored when it comes to tackle selection. A two-inch jerkbait on a 6-pound test spinning setup produces more fish per hour than most bass techniques. These micro baits are the reason ultralight fishing is addictive.
RAPALA
Two-inch finesse darter. Crappie, perch, and small smallmouth all line up.
BASSDASH
Multi-jointed micro swimbait that looks like a panfish and swims like one too. Bass eat bluegill. This is a bluegill that fights back with treble hooks.
TROUT MAGNET
Twenty crawdad bodies and eight long-shank hooks in a kit that'll outfish live bait on pressured trout streams. The wobble fall is the whole presentation.
Z-MAN
Ned rig in a tube. The cheat code for tough days when nothing else moves.
