While fishing from a Kayak offers many advantages over angling from a boat, Copious Storage Space is not among them, which means a smart Kayak angler has a well-thought plan before venturing onto the water.
“Without some type of System, you’re always having to swap tackle and reorganize gear before every trip,” said Jason Kincy, host of the Kayak Fishing Focus website.
“Because there are so many Types, Sizes and Styles, Soft Plastics can be a particular challenge.”
Kincy’s approach is a Soft Plastics Filing System that incorporates a Small Duffel, Zip-top plastic bags and a Seasonal Calendar based on Water Temperature.
“I separate my Soft Baits into Three Groups,” he explained, “those for water that’s 50 degrees or lower, baits for 50-to-70-degree water, and those for when the water is 70 degrees and above.”

Fine Tuning Your Spinnerbait Selection
Among his contemporaries, Matt Herren has long been considered one of the best Spinner bait Fishermen competing on the Bass master ® Elite Series, but all are surprised to learn the Pro actually keeps very few of the popular blade-type lures in his boat. Instead, Herren carries boxes of Spinner bait Components, including Blades, Skirts, and Heads, and Makes his lures on the water as he needs them. “I wouldn’t have enough room in my boat to carry all the different Spinner baits I might want during a tournament,” laughs Herren, “so I keep Boxes of Parts in Different Colors and Weights and put them together as the Conditions Dictate. It only takes a minute or so to make one, so I’m really not losing much time at all, and I can have exactly what I want.”
