What Soft Baits To Carry In My Tackle?

[Kfreker]

So I have alot of soft baits in my tackle. Everything from worms, flukes, craws, hogs, lizzards, wackey tailed worms, tubes, etc... and about 4-5 maybe more of each type of bait. I was just wondering is this to much to carry? I dont find my self ever using all of them at once so is it just a waste of space? How many of each should i carry and of what colours? Personally im more into power fishing with my cranks and spinners, but i want to get good at using softbaits as i see people catching some monster fish. I just cant seem to get the technique down correctly. Any in put would be amazing

I do like to carry at least a bag of each plastic because if you start getting bit, five plastics can get beat up fast.

If it's not too heavy then it's never too much.

I'm a bank guy that's the motto I fish by

I usually carry three colors two bags each.

I have 2 different containers of all kinds of different soft plastics. One has colors that are good for stained to muddy water. The other has plastics that good for less stained to clear water. Depending on the lake I am going to, I will pack on my boat whichever container corresponds to the water conditions of that lake.

If I'm fishing a farm pond or somewhere else I can't take my boat, I will do the same but use a tackle bag. As far as what types of plastics to put in it, I like to keep it basic in this situation. A few of the following: craw imitations (3.5- 4"), ribbon tail worms (7"), straight tail worms (4"), and stick baits (5").

As much as I hate them senkos catch fish, a few flukes and straight tail worms.

It does not sound like to much. I carry tons of stuff of every color and type.

From the bank I use a backpack for my tackle. I carry probably 8 bags of soft plastics that are stuffed full.

When I go out in the boat, I've found a large ice chest is just about the right size for all my tackle.

7.5" Culprit ribbon tail worm, 10" Culprit ribbon tail worm, Super Fluke (any size), Horny toad (any size) and whichever color fits your lakes/canals.

. I was just wondering is this to much to carry?

 

 

Sorry to sound like an ass, but I can't fathom how anyone could answer this besides you. 

 

I've been content on the bank with a pack of senkos, couple lizards and a few flukes.   I've also been in the boat with a 15 pound worm binder and a ten pound back-pack with nothing but plastics and found myself wishing for something I'd left at home or in my TW shopping cart.

As my plastics collection grew, thanks to the bait monkey, I pulled them all out of my tackle box and bought a small $5 lunch bag with handle.  I have a gallon ziploc bag full of plastics that is in that, and its attached to my tackle box strap...2 bags in one.  The thing I've really liked about the setup now is when I choose to take some live crawlers with me, I can put a small ice pack on the bottom of the lunch box, put the worms on top of that, and my gallon bag of plastics on top of that...creates good insulation and keeps the worms fresher longer.

I decided to put a few 3600 tackle trays to this use.  Depending on what my plan is bank fishing I can take and put that one box in my bag and a binder with other odds and ends.  Have a dropshot box, creature/flipping box, and a swimbait (swing impacts/ shads) for the umbrella rig.  Any other plastics such as senko's or flukes I keep in a binder.  Depending on what I wanna do, I just swap them out and leave the other in the trunk and ready to go.
