Strength Meets Finesse. Engineered for All Conditions.

This larger salt water Jerkbait is perfect for targeting fish chasing larger bait.  The Lucky Craft Flash Minnow 130 is a suspending bait that will stay in the zone on the pause.  Here at Tackle Express, we like to target calico bass and halibut at the Channel Islands.  The benefits of using a 130 size over a 110 size are the bigger profile. 

This larger profile can keep smaller fish from biting and also can bring fish up from deeper depths.   Combining the benefits of the Pointer and Flash Minnow, this bait has great side-to-side action and slowly floats allowing it to be used in various shallow water situations.

One of the best-value spinning reels in the Daiwa lineup, the Fuego LT delivers a technology stack that punches. Zaion V carbon fiber body that is 3–5% lighter than the previous generation and a significant step up from the nylon-based plastics typically found in reels at this price. The Airdrive Rotor reduces front-end rotational weight for a more balanced, responsive feel on every retrieve, while the solid Airdrive Bail provides superior rigidity and resistance to bending vs. hollow bail designs — the thinner, lighter wire also reduces rotational weight for a smoother, more effortless retrieve.

What truly sets the Fuego LT apart at this price is MagSeal — Daiwa's magnetic oil seal technology that protects the pinion bearing from saltwater, sand, and debris, extending reel longevity in harsh environments. Combined with Tough Digigear precision-cut gears, ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag), and a machined aluminum screw-in handle, the Fuego LT delivers flagship-level features at an entry-level price. 

Key Features

The BKK Ringed Mutsu Medium  Offset Circle Hooks is a versatile hook perfect for all your live and chunk bait needs onshore and off. The offset point and SS coating make for quick hook sets and easy bait rigging, while BKK's HCS (Hyper Carbon Steel) keeps the hook lightweight yet sturdy enough to handle big catches. Plus, the added solid ring adds extra liveliness to your bait, reeling in even more bites.

This is a medium wire hook so it's diameter makes it ideal for medium grade fish.  If the wire is too small, it will bend out causing a lost fish.  If it's too large in diameter, it will kill the bait and is harder to hook into the fishes mouth.  

They have a sharp offset point and a Super Slide (SS) coating that helps with faster hookups and easier bait rigging. The hooks are also made with BKK's proprietary Hyper Carbon Steel wire, which is 25% stronger and 30% harder than traditional high carbon steels.

The Daiwa BG MQ Spinning Reel is built on a Monocoque (MQ) one-piece machined aluminum frame with rubber seals enclosing the gearbox at all key intrusion points — delivering a waterproof, rigid platform that protects internal components from saltwater, sand, and debris in the harshest fishing environments.

The upgraded evolution of one of Daiwa's most proven saltwater baitcasting platforms, the Daiwa Lexa TW combines the battle-tested Lexa foundation with Daiwa's industry-leading T-Wing System (TWS) line guide for a heavy-duty round baitcasting reel purpose-built for saltwater applications. The T-Wing System's T-shaped line guide dramatically reduces line friction on the cast compared to conventional level-wind guides, delivering longer casts and smoother line flow with heavy braid — the critical advantage for yellowtail, calico bass, and inshore saltwater fishing where casting distance and braid performance matter.

The Lexa TW is built around a stainless steel pinion gear and high-grade brass main gear for long-term durability under sustained saltwater loads, housed in an aluminum frame and side plate for maximum rigidity and precise internal component alignment. The swept Power handle with custom EVA knob delivers maximum power and torque for fighting large fish and retrieving heavy rigs. 8 corrosion-resistant ball bearings + 1 roller bearing provide ultra-smooth operation at all retrieve speeds. Available in 300 and 400 sizes across Power, High Power, Extra High Power, and Left Hand configurations.

These Toit Fishing Side Cutters are designed specifically to cut single strand fishing wire. Not only are these Stainless Steel but we have brased a Tungsten Carbide insert in both the upper and lower jaw. Are you tired of seeing these removable insert type tools breaking twisting, screw deforming? Well that is exactly why we opted for a fixed cutting edge. If you are looking for Side Cutters that provide both corrosion resistance and an ergonomic handle, this may just be the tool to try. Toit Side Cutters work perfectly alongside our Haywire Twist Tool to create a Haywire Twist, Tokyo Rig or even a Dingle Dangle Rig.

Features:

The Toit 9" Long Nose Pliers consider a fish's sensitive gills. Its polished end and long handle provide easy grip and control for hook removal. Compact and equipped with a unique handle, this tool easily reaches tight spaces within a fish's mouth. With a short jaw length, it prevents bending or twisting and its spring-loaded feature allows for repeated use. At 9 inches long, it's the perfect tool for tackling difficult hooks.

The Daiwa D-VEC Deckhand Tool Kit bundles three essential fishing tools into one value-priced set — everything needed for hook removal, line cutting, and secure tool storage on the water. The kit includes a 6" diagonal cutter for clean mono and braid cuts, 6" needle nose pliers for hook removal and split ring work, and a 6" 2-position nylon plier sheath with a removable belt/pocket clip for secure, accessible tool storage. 

What's Included

• 6" Diagonal Cutter — 6-inch diagonal cutter for clean cuts on monofilament and braided line; diagonal cutting geometry provides maximum leverage for cutting heavy-diameter lines and leader material cleanly.
• 6" Needle Nose Pliers — 6-inch needle nose pliers for hook removal, split ring work, and crimping; needle nose profile provides reach and precision for deeply hooked fish and tight-space rigging tasks.
• 6" 2-Position Nylon Plier Sheath — Durable nylon sheath with 2-position design and removable belt/pocket clip; secures pliers during transport and provides quick-access carry options for belt or pocket attachment on the boat or shore.

Best For

• Anglers Equipping a New Setup — Complete 3-piece tool kit covers the essential tools needed for a day on the water; better value than purchasing each tool individually.
• Boat & Shore Fishing — 2-position sheath with removable belt/pocket clip provides flexible carry options for both boat deck and shore fishing applications; nylon construction resists water and corrosion in saltwater and freshwater environments.
• Hook Removal & Line Cutting — Needle nose pliers and diagonal cutter cover the two most common on-the-water tool tasks; kit provides both tools in a matched 6" size for consistent handling across both tools.
• Gift & Starter Kit — Bundled kit format makes a practical gift for new and experienced anglers; Daiwa D-VEC quality at a value price point for anglers looking to upgrade from basic tools.
