TacticalBassin's Crankbait Fishing Buyers Guide

Crankbait fishing for bass can be as simple or as complicated as you want it to be.

Enormous Tackle Warehouse Unboxing

We usually stay away from the unboxing videos but once in a while an order is so ridiculous that people just want to have a peak inside. More imporantly its a great way to see what we're really using and that the information we share on Tacticalbassin is the real deal.

In this video Tim opens up an enormous tackle order he placed at Tackle Warehouse. (If you're doing the same, please consider using this link to get there so you can support Tacticalbassin while shopping http://www.tacklewarehouse.com/?from=tbassin ) He walks you through everything in the box and explains what the items are for. 

All of the baits shown in this video are effective during the Fall and the Winter Transition. Of course there are many others we already own and didn't need to stock up on but these are a great start. Below is a break down of the LONG list of baits and components that were in the box if you would like to take a look at them.
