If you want to elevate your fishing, these are the hacks you need to know! From shore angler to boater, this is for you! Today's video isn't about how to rig a worm, or what a bite feels like... this is about taking your angling to the next level with proper equipment, tackle management, and fish care. You can waste a lot of money trying to upgrade your equipment, we're here to help you navigate those pitfalls!
For the beginner angler it's all about understanding the basics of equipment, rigging, and bite detection. But for the advanced angler like you who's already got gear, maybe even a boat, and you're ready to start upgrading equipment, its about understanding what is worth buying and what is a waste of time. Today Matt navigates tools, tackle storage, trolling motors, electronics, boat rigging, and more!
Below you'll find links to the exact gear Matt discussed in the video, in the order he discussed it. From the proper tools, to trolling motors, to tackle boxes, we've got it all laid out to help you make informed decisions as you take the next steps in your angling.

Matt, you are the best bass fishing educator on RU-vid. Frankly, you are a gifted optimizer. You not only are the best optimizer for equipment and tackle, you know how to optimize your explanations so they are unbelievably effective at revealing the strategic and tactical applications--Ergo your name, "Tactical Bassin'". You are da' man. I have grown old watching your videos and just sold my skeeter because my broken old body can't do it anymore. Thanks for the help along the way that allowed me to make hay while the sun was shining. May you and Tim experience many blessings as you forge ahead.

@tacticalbassin 9 дней назад

Thank you so much for the support through the years and for letting us be part of your journey! Giving up your boat is difficult, but it's also a sign of a life we'll lived. I hope more opportunities than you anticipate come along to ride the back deck of other's boats... the biggest bass of your life may still lie ahead.

@Stuntman2K3 9 дней назад

Minnkota terrova is half the price of an ultrex and has spotlock. Upgrading from a basic edge to the terrova specifically for spot lock is game changing, especially on a 17' aluminum bass tracker. I feel like the terrova doesn't get enough love when the ultrex is getting pushed for an upgrade. You can also get a 12 volt system so you don't need to add more batteries or weight to your boat. Spot lock is the deal especially when having to re-tie or stay on a specific offshore or specific target.

@aaronitchkawich3565 9 дней назад

I co-sign on the Terrova. I liked it way better than the Ghost (don’t recommend). I do have an Ultrex Quest now and it’s by far the best TM I’ve ever owned.

@motocrossmadman756 6 дней назад

The biggest reason that the ultrex gets pushed the way that it does is too big ones one the cable style foot pedal gives much better steering response if you’re using a foot pedal like that I think that’s a huge plus the other option is it’s very easy to mount forward facing transducers 360 all that stuff on ultrex vs the terrova

@Stuntman2K3 6 дней назад

@@motocrossmadman756 I agree! I just feel like the terrova is a good stepping stone when wanting the best feature in my opinion spot lock but don't have the funds to jump up to an ultrex. Ultrex I am sure is superior in every way though. The foot pedal on the terrova is also very low profile so if you don't want to cut a hole in your boat floor to do a recessed mount it works just fine as is. The terrova just seems like a really good feature packed bang for your buck. Even comes with remote.

I have always been a step ahead of my angling peers but I’m neither exaggerating nor stroking my own ego when I say that with your channel as my primary source for new insight the difference is astounding. I didn’t think it was possible given my passion for fishing from the start but I’ve come to enjoy it more than ever, you should both be very proud of your contribution.

There have been days where im not dialed at all, but still manage a decent limit when others struggle because i make more good presentations in a day than them.

Did some Googling and you’re spot on with the amps at around 3 per unit/TM. Your explanation of how to break down the drawn amps and total amp of a battery may seem simple and self explanatory but it’s the first time I’ve heard it. Makes my upcoming lithium battery purchase much easier and I’m buying with confidence now. Constantly pumping out quality content guys. I freakin love it!

The safety tip about being able to cut hooks is invaluable, definitely picking up some of those cutters. The mapping as well since I run a little 9 inch on my kayak and lake levels have felt crazy this year with all of the rain and flooding in our area, being able to adjust current levels to reflect on the graph would be awesome. The other one was about those thin tackle boxes. I do a lot of bank fishing as well and tackle management when all you’ve got is a backpack is hard as I hate being caught without the right gear. Love the videos, thanks for all of the info Matt.

I have Texas Tackle Pliers and they are exactly as Matt said ( at least for me) they work with no issues. I have the executive, the size smaller and the large size ( although I think I went overboard with this purchase since I can change the biggest hooks/split rings I have with the executive size). I have repurposed my clear boxes for in house storage of baits and also for lure making materials such as skirts. I need a good net with maybe a medium hoop size ) or whatever would handle at best a 10 lb bass) and an extendable handle since I’m on shore.

@randyengle7691 9 дней назад

Those waterproof tackle boxes are great but don’t leave them in the sun. My wife had about 12 ito 110 jerk baits get so hot that they split and were ruined. She had maybe 30 in that box so almost half.

@sierra11b 7 дней назад

1) I carry burts bees bee's wax lip balm (honey flavor) for my lips, but also use it to apply braid leader knots. Just a tiny dab when it gets a bit frayed., 2) Ryugi hook stocker II is a great organizational hook wallet for the shore, kayak, or co-angler. Gamakatsu used to sell a similar wallet but think it's discontinued? At any rate, the ryugi ziplocks are robust and you can fit the cardboard backing for easy item number reordering. They come in different colors, too... I have two; one in black and one in white.

@af4od02 9 дней назад

One more tool you need! I carry a pair of landscape plant nursery hand pruners. These pruners are not much larger than pliers. Often if your lake has lots of trees and plants reaching over the water, you can accidentally cast a lure into the limbs. Instead of trying to untangle your lure while banging your trolling motor on the bank, just float in, and cut the line tangled limb and pull back out into the lake. These hand pruners simplify unhanging your lures.

I’ve kayaked for years and years and those Buzbe boxes are truly waterproof. I also get plastic ammo crates that have a gasket and latches from Amazon and keep my packs of hooks and 3400 size boxes in them. You can flip the yak and everything will still be dry. P.S. those hook cutters are essential along with sunglasses to not get hooked in the eye. I told my wife that for years and then one day while pulling a lure free it shot back at her face. She put her hand up to block it and got some thick trebles in the hand. I said, now imagine that was in your eye. It’s been sunglasses ever since.

One other thing is the Power Pole Charge battery charger. I installed one on my boat. Every time you start the big motor it charges all of the batteries. You can also specify how much charge you want to go to your trolling motor versus the big motor/electronics battery. It also has a jump start feature; if the big motor battery gets too low it diverts power from the trolling motor batteries to start the big motor. You control the whole thing using an app on your cell phone. Good product.

The only fish we flip on deck are fish we accidentally fail to catch. If you watch closely, the vast majority of our flips are actually caught midair, and never hit the deck.

The whole "shallow vs deep" thing is real. If your home lake is typically less than 6', probably anchors. If it's deeper, you're going to get way more out of spotlock. Personally, it's spotlock for me 👍🏼

Matt, I'm in a 10 foot kayak. I cant bring alot. I don't even bring a net because I don't have space for it. Is there a crate I can use to optimize my boat? I'm using a milk crate with 3700 clear storage boxes. and I can only fit 6 in it.

@tacticalbassin 9 дней назад

The Plano weekend kayak crate is the best solution I've found. It's still a milk crate, but let's you put more gear on/around it

@allereb 6 дней назад

@@tacticalbassin You'll probably want to switch to 3600 boxes if you use this. The lid wouldn't be able to fold over with 3700s. I have this though in my kayak and love it compared to the price points of the YakAttack crates. Also, follow Matt's tip of using thin boxes were you can. Right now, I think I have 5 full size and 2 thins but varies depending on what I want to take -- 3 thins take up the same space as 2 standard boxes. That still leaves about a third of the crate open. You could wedge even more boxes in there, I use to bring a jacket, snack, long needle nose and cutters. The top/side pockets are great for holding line, extra lures, etc. I also have 2 3-rod holders attached to the back/side of the create and the bags don't really interfere. Another thing I do is use a Plano KVD Speed Bag for all my plastics, you can fit a ton in one of those. I keep that up front so it doesn't eat up space in your crate. I also use a Flambeau Pro-Angler Tackle Bag for shore fishing so swapping the 3600s into that is a breeze (and again, those thin boxes make a big difference).

Anybody else just never kept a net on their boat? I don’t tournament fish and mostly couldn’t care less if I lost a fish or two at the boat. It’s just always in the way and rarely do I find I need one. Obviously if you live or die by boating fish you need one.

Along with the mapping, you have to have the knowledge and equipment to know how to effectively fish those locations.

@tacticalbassin 9 дней назад

Experience is very important, but mapping brings incredible advantage 👍🏼

@@tacticalbassin totally agree with you. I’ve seen a big crossover with deer hunting and using topography to find prime spots with bass. After watching yalls videos on where do bass go for each season it “clicked”.

If you get to a new lake, how can you tell if it's 4ft low?

@tacticalbassin 9 дней назад

Just a visual look at the shoreline. You can quickly gauge where the highwater line is 👍🏼

@Twangtown7 9 дней назад

@@tacticalbassin Ah, gotcha. I have a hard time doing that if it's all low-land. If there's like a bluff wall or something where you can see a waterline, it's easier obviously. Thanks!

Something that I'm not sure you realize: 3 12v 100aH batteries in series are still only 100aH worth of capacity. Connecting batteries in series increases the voltage, but not the usable capacity. Connecting them in *parallel* will increase usable capacity, but not the voltage. Imagine you have a bucket of water (this is your battery) with a pipe connected to the bottom (the size of the pipe is the voltage). Let's say we have 5-gallon buckets, and they drain 1 gallon per hour. These are 5 gallon-hour buckets. If you need 3g/hr of flow, you can use 3 buckets so now have tripled your volume of water *but also tripled flow rate,* so you still only have 5 gallon-hours of capacity. Each individual bucket doesn't care about the bucket next to it, it still drains its one gallon per hour no matter what. Or, say you have a single bucket that drains at 3g/hr, but comes from the bucket factory with a rating of 5 gallon-hours. We can conclude that it must have 3x the amount of water as our standard 5 gallon bucket, since the time-rating of the buckets is equal. The 3 buckets strapped together are your 3 12v batteries in series, the one super-bucket is the 36v battery.

Those Plano Edge boxes are not even slightly waterproof. I’m really disappointed in them for the price. I have a bunch of them and I’m thinking about switching everything to boxes that are really waterproof. Are the Buzbe boxes truly waterproof?

According to the Minn Kota website, if you have a non-Quest Ultrex and run lithium batteries, running it on 10 for extended periods is harmful to the motor. The same goes for if you spotlock in heavy wind/current with that set up. Anyone else see that and hesitate to buy lithium batteries?

You know Tim was talking about the rubber coated nets. I watched a hack on how to coat a net that doesn’t have the coating. They bought a couple of spray cans of Flexseal and sprayed the older type net. I have not done this yet but it looked like it does a good job.

@tacticalbassin 9 дней назад

Very interesting! Of course, by telling time you go through all that (flex seal is pricy) you could probably get the right net 😂

@davidharris4030 8 дней назад

@@tacticalbassin Very true unless you already have a net that simply needs the rubber coating. I don’t know what that flexseal costs but you might be right.
