Last-Minute Stocking Stuffers

Texas Tackle Split Ring Pliers are the Split Ring Pliers you've always wanted. They grab that split ring, open it right up, and make sure it STAYS open! Makes the headaches that comes with installation of hooks and changing out split-rings a thing of the past! They are made of high quality surgical stainless steel for corrosion resistance and dependable long life.  They are perfect for crank baits, jerk baits, small swimbaits, and larger swimbaits.

The correct size pliers must be used for the split rings you are changing out.  If it's too small it won't open it enough and if it's too big it will bend the split ring out too much weakening it.  

Split Ring Sizes:

Small: #2 - #4

Medium: #4 - #7

Large: #7 - #11

XL: 11 and up

The Owner Centering Pin Spring CPS is one of the most useful things in your tackle box.  There are so many ways to use it and it really changes the game when fishing soft plastics.  

We like to use at the eye of the hook as it was intended, but we also use it to add bling to our worms.  Simply add a swivel and you can bring worms and plastics to life with blades, skirts, and tandem rigs.  Join worms together and use the CPS as a joint by adding it to both worms and connecting them together.

Duran's DFP Mega Clamp for Casting Reels is more than 200% wider than stock clamps and the most secure clamp on the market! It works with low profile and conventional reels that have mounting holes in the reel from the manufacturer.  It will give your fishing reel added security so it doesn't move and is necessary for deck hand rods.

A deckhand rod is a rod that does not come with a reel seat.  The benefit to a deck hand rod is to have the ability to mount the reel in the ideal location depending on your preferences.  

This clamp is designed to be used with stock hardware and protect your expensive blanks from being crushed. Deep serrations on the inside and rounded edges on the outside equal a comfortable grip and maximum holding power for those long battles.

This clamp is CNC Machined out of aircraft grade 6061 aluminum and anodized to prevent corrosion. Custom laser cut stainless steel inserts and washers are provided so it will work for a wide variety of reels. Another cool add on feature is an adjustable trigger that can be taken on or off depending on your fishing style. 

• Trigger Sold Separately
• Ideal for deckhand rods
• Will not work with spinning reels or rods
• Wider surface area to displace pressure to prevent blank damage.
• The millimeters(mm) listed is in relation to the diameter of the rod.  Measure where the reel goes, wether it is on the rod itself or the reel seat, and that will tell you what clamp you need.

Aquateko's Knot 2 Kinky Nickel Leader Wire is made with a special superelastic alloy, allowing it to be bent at least ten times more without permanent deformation. Its unique formula of Nickel and Titanium creates a high degree of elasticity and strength that can endure even the toughest battles with fish.

It is further programmed to stay straight with a complex annealing process for reliability. With higher tensile strength than ordinary steel leaders, Knot 2 Kinky is the ideal choice for both inshore and offshore fishing, eliminating the frustration of constantly changing kinked rigs.

Knot2Kinky wire leader is knottable, you don't need crimps or tools for this leader.  It is extremely elastic yet has a very high abrasion resistance.  It's made of nickel titanium so it has stretch, won't rust, ties with easy knots, and replaces normal steel wire.  

Length 15 feet

The Pitbull Tackle Heavy Duty Split Ring Plier offers the same great performance as our standard Split Ring Plier but with a newly redesigned jaw specifically made for opening stronger split rings. Featuring a Locking-Jaw design to keep the strongest split rings firmly in place. The angle is created in such a way where any user can open up 300lb split rings with ease. When rigging for heavy fish you need a tool that can stand up to the challenge, and this split ring plier delivers.

What sets these pliers apart from the rest is a double lock head design. This feature holds the split ring firmly in place and does not allow it to slip out of the pliers grip. Traditionally a split ring plier when closed will hold the split ring in place, however the split ring can rotate up and down within the pliers grip. The double lock design on the Pitbull Tackle Heavy Duty Split Ring Plier grabs and holds split rings in place, keeping them perpendicular to the pliers at all times. This ensures a steady and consistent angle every time, allowing for easier placement or removal of hooks and lures. Once in your hand you can feel the pliers open and lock in the split rings with ease.

Pitbull Tackle also wanted to give the user an improvement on traditional thinner handles and longer bulkier designs. The handle was made thicker, designed to naturally fit into the palm of your hand. Next, a non-slip material was chosen to give the user superb grip, and a bright color choice was chosen to make the pliers easily visible to the user. These pliers are lightweight and can easily fit in your pocket or tool holder, yet are constructed with corrosion resistant stainless steel to give the user both durability and functionality.

Mend it glue is the best soft bait glue ever made and dries soft, clear and very strong in minutes. Mend it repairs perfectly any soft plastic baits, for instance oily hand-poured worms to salty Senkos, tubes, creatures and swimbaits. Mend it won't stick to your fingers, clothing or boat carpet like other products, so you can safely use it anywhere.

Mend-it comes in a glass bottle with a brush applicator that makes repairs easy. Mend-it allows you to customize your soft baits and also works great for gluing and over-coating swimbait eyes. Watch Mend It's video and see how easy it is to use.

The Rapala Super Line Scissors are designed with sharp serrated cutting edge and oversized finger and thumb holes, these scissors actually grip and hold braided line for easy non-slip cutting. 

They are great all around scissors that every boat and shore angler should have.  No matter where the Tackle Express crew fishes, we have a pair of these with us.

The Accurate Knot Puller is a great tool to cinch your knots tight without the risk of injuring your hands. The Accurate Knot Puller comes in two different options; a 3 inch and a 4 inch option to choose from! It consists of two pieces that screw together to be compact to fit in a pocket or tackle box.

There is a hole at the top for a key ring and a slot that can be used to put a hook through for cinching down knots at that location. For line connections, the two pieces of the knot puller have a black rubber coating for ease of holding while cinching down knots and to give something for the line to “bite” in to.

The Pitbull Tackle Split Ring Pliers are a practical approach to a long sought after tool. Designed with functionality and user comfort in mind, Pitbull Tackle set out to improve the typical design of a split ring plier and give it better functionality.

The Stick Jacket XL Casting model fits rods up to 8-1/2' Long and 3-7/8" round.  We like these sleeves because they are easy to put on and take off, protect the rod and guides, and can be color coordinated so you know which rod is which.  The grommet at the tip allows you to hang your rod, the sleeve acts like a finger trap.  

All the covers are designed to stop short of the reel and in most cases the hook holder.  That way you can have a bait or lure tied on and it won't get caught in the sleeve.  We don't recommend putting the hook on the guides, you'll have a heck of a time getting it off if the hook gets in the sleeve.
