For the fishermen in the clan - Mystery Tackle Box

General Discussion
1

This site http://mysterytacklebox.com/ offers a “gift box” subscription were you receive 4 to 5 products a month that value around $25 to $30 for $15/month. It is less a month if you pay in advance. You can select from 3 themes Bass, Saltwater, Ice fishing and you can change the theme every month. Ice fishing is only offered in the winter months.

I decided to sign up using coupon code “GET499” which gets your first box for $4.99. You can cancel at any time. I watched a few bass theme unboxing videos and it seems you get one or two hard baits, some plastics, and new products on the market jig heads, weights, etc.

Just thought I would pass it along. I need to fill my tackle box but don’t really have the money to go nuts. This lets me try new stuff without having to much buyers remorse if I don’t like it.

This is good info! I’ll have to look at it for my dad. He fishes saltwater.

sounds a lot like Loot Crate, but for fishing instead of nerd stuff… cool gift idea for sure.

Yea, I used to do the LootCrate too. Probably why I had no issues jumping on this one.

Nice. I’m gonna look into this when I get home. I love my ice fishing.

Even though that is rare both videos make me want to go ice fishing. Might wanna turn the volume down on the first video. They scream like girls.

One fish I’ve never caught on the ice is a muskie.

I have come across a few more tackle subscription boxes. I subbed to all, SMH. I plan to cancel all but one after the first month.

They all have a discount for the first box…

CODE: SAVE10 Get first box for $5

https://www.fishhound.com/pick-a-plan

CODE: SAVE10 Get first box for $9.99 (I got mine cheaper by getting points for filling out profile, posting in forums, etc. you can earn points for posting reviews of the items you get and apply the points to your box)

http://tacklegrab.com/

CODE: TRYFOR5 Get first box for $5. If any of you decide to do this one please let me send you a “Refer friends” email so I will get $10 off my next order. I’ll get gunny’s sister to return the favor.

As these come in next month I will post what I get and let you know if I think it is worth a shit. If anything I will at least get $100+ of tackle for about $18 next month.

You pay $15 a month and you dont know what your getting?

Most fisherman I know are a bit particular about bait, tackle and gear.

For $180 I can buy some tackle thats more spacific to time of year, where and what I’m fishing.

I don’t disagree with you about using your money more towards specific gear. In my situation it is a little different. I am just starting my own tackle bag(just started buying my own gear in the past 4 months). I have no particulars about any type of bait. I am open to anything especially if I am saving money and being introduced to lures I normally wouldn’t buy due to price( I have a hard time pulling the trigger on $10+ crank bait/swim bait).

First box came in today…

Field Testing Kit from Fishhound.com: Normally $19 I paid $9 for first box and got $45 worth of lures.


The Box



Mini Magazine



Samples: Dude Wipes “for when your taint stank” and LightLoad Towels which I already use.



Coupon



KVD Spool Management System - Basically keeps the line on unused spools and keeps a tag line out.



Lunar Spinner Baits - I don’t expect these to last long. One or two good hits and they will be garbage.



Zman LizardZ Plastics



Bill Lewis Rat-L-Trap



Strike Pro Crank bait



River 2 Sea Trophy Minnow

I will be able to use all of these lures. Woot!
