A shore Anglers tackle box...

[photo_rob]

my shore fishing kit all fits in a backpack. It includes:
- 1 large flat plano box for big cranks, hooks, spoons, and rapalas
- 1 long handle collapsible net (most of the places you'll fish have very tall walls, or drop offs to the water. You don't want to harm the fish or break your line "flipping it" on shore.
- Pliers, spreaders, hook cutters (very much mandatory for pike).
- 1 landing glove...try and keep fish in the water and off of pavement, grass, or the ground. A glove will protect your hands from teeth and hooks and give you a good grip.
- 1 spool of flouro leader material
- 1 spool of extra line (better safe than sorry)
- 1 bag or 2 of soft plastics if nothing else is working.
- 1 ziplock bag of corn kernels if you want to target Carp - you'll often see packs swim by.

Also, important....Good Shoes! - you'll be walking a lot to cover water.
