I take two boxes. To keep hooks close to hand, I use a small sheet of foam that comes in shipping boxes. Cut to size needed and put hooks by size on it. Slides into the soft side tackle box without problem. A small wire cutter for removing things, placed on a lanyard tied to the handle of a box. light weight needle nose pliers extra long to get into the deepest small mouths like turtles. I got mine in the crafts area. Minnow bucket with bubbler/aerator for small silvers and always a box of worms. Clamp on sinkers. A lot of items you can in the boxes sold at walmart's. I buy the boxes on sale and use them to hold my tackle like large swivels, bobbers, sinkers,clampers, tools so I can take it out and see at a glance what I need. What bait is up to the fisherman. I like live, my g'son likes plastic. We try to get plastic that is like the bait around where we fish. Of course after every trip I clean everything up and replace things used, especially after having the grandkids along..lol
