Why six tools and not three hundred

Most starter kits are a math trick. You get 300 pieces for $30, which sounds great until you realize 280 of them are things you’ll never tie on.

This is the other approach. Six tools, chosen because they’re the six that break, bend, or go missing first:

  • Pliers — for hook removal and line work
  • Fish gripper — so you can land a fish without touching it
  • Line cutters — clean cuts on braid, which dulls cheap scissors
  • Hook remover — for the hook that’s too deep to get by hand
  • Retractable tether — so the pliers don’t end up at the bottom
  • Measuring decal — so you know if it’s legal size before you decide

Plus 100 yards of braided line. Not a sample spool — enough to actually fish with.

The whole thing weighs under a pound. Toss it in your bag and go.
