Well, if you are “sick” with spinning, then you will definitely need the appropriate equipment that is intended for this type of fishing. One of the most common types of equipment is a spinning vest, designed specifically for spinning and. In addition to the vest, the spinning equipment also includes other necessary things, without which such fishing is already unthinkable.

Vest

A spinning vest is one of those items of equipment that is simply necessary for fishing. Useful for both spinning and fly fishing. It can be packed in a backpack, and when you arrive, put it on. In such a vest, many tackles and the necessary little things are placed, which, before the start of fishing, have a place in the backpack, and when fishing, you cannot do without them.

Even a thermos with hot tea and food will fit. If necessary, you do not have to run anywhere, all the necessary items are available. Hands free, full unloading. These vests are called unloading. They allow you to evenly distribute all the necessary items in storage places, in pockets.

There are Russian models of vests, for example, "Burbot", there are imported ones - models from well-known firms SHIMANO, AQUATIC, Golden catch and others. It should be understood that this is a multifunctional clothing, and it cannot be very cheap. If you buy a vest for less than 1000 rubles, then be prepared that the fasteners will break, the seams will open. The vest won't last long.

Fly and spinning vest

You can advise to buy a golden catch spinning vest. This is a model that is very popular among fishermen. He is very well crafted. Distinctive feature is that the golden catch spinning vest can be washed and cleaned well. Dries very quickly. There is no need to select a vest by size, it can be adjusted to any height and waist width with the help of straps. Such a vest is fastened with a zipper, and then with fasteners. All fittings are of good quality. More than twenty external and internal pockets provide secure storage for many things. There are propylene inserts in the pockets, for which spinning lures are hooked so that they do not get tangled. Swivels and carbines, Velcro, loops complement the ergonomics of this vest. To all other advantages, its low price is added.

The video shows a life jacket for a spinner:

Of the expensive models, one can single out the NEXUS VF 193j vest (SHIMANO), a beautiful design and an advanced brand, but the price is about 20,000 rubles.

Bag

The next important piece of equipment is the spinning bag. When moving with spinning along the shore, it becomes necessary to fold the baits so that they are always nearby. Spinning bags come in both traditional and waist bags.

The waist bag has large pockets in which you can store large items such as spools or scales. The waist bag is usually made of waterproof materials. Such a bag can be multi-sectional, equipped with storage boxes. Such bags will help to store a large number of baits and are filled to capacity.

A belt box can serve as an alternative to a soft bag. The box moves along the belt and, if desired, is either behind the back or on the stomach, as it suits you. This box has smooth edges and fits snugly to the body. The lid of this box is made of transparent plastic, which allows you to see all the items that are in it. More durable than a box - a spinner's box. In such a box of a spinning player, you can neatly fold all the gear.

The golden catch spinning bag, like the vest of the same manufacturer, is very popular among fans of spinning and fly fishing.

On the video, see the benefits of a spinning bag:

Belt

A spinning belt can serve as a replacement for an unloading vest. For example, the belt is the STAKAN 3.1 spinning bag. This is a modification of the popular unloading bag. Such a belt is equipped with a rod holder made of heat-resistant material. Holder - the glass supports. The size of the glass is such that you can put any blank in it. Do not put the rod on the ground or hold it between your legs while fishing. There is also a pocket with a “table” in the belt, where you can quickly change the bait.

Kit

The spinning set includes such a number of items that an inexperienced person does not even suspect. So, going fishing experienced fisherman will not forget to take from home: line cutters, a lighter for cauterizing line knots, an extractor, for getting hooks out of a fish mouth, a yawner or a jaw gripper for pulling out a bait, a landing net, a hooker, special pliers for opening winding rings and changing hooks, a hook sharpener , headlamp, crocheter, polarized glasses. And this is not the whole list required for spinning fishing. You can not buy such a set, you need to collect it.

In order to protect your hands in cold weather, you will need spinning gloves. Gloves are considered a winter piece of equipment. A feature of such gloves is that the thumb and forefinger are free from fabric, they can carry out various manipulations with tackle and a rod if you are fishing on. After all, you will always keep your index finger on the form. But there is a problem: the index finger, when casting a braided line, is injured on it and, moreover, freezes during spinning fishing in cold weather. Many wrap their fingers with adhesive tape.

There are gloves that have all the "fingers" cut off. Spinning gloves are produced by all the same companies that deal with fishing clothes - Silver Stream, Flagman, Alaskan and others.

Those who are not chasing modern fashion trends use ordinary construction gloves with rubberized blotches in the form of pimples. For convenience, the necessary fingers are cut off. True, when casting, the hook hooks on the soft cotton fabric of these products occur.

You can also buy cycling gloves or neoprene for diving, but use for spinning.

Going fishing on foot, or for a few days, you understand that the number of things you need increases significantly. They will no longer fit in a small bag, you will need a spinning backpack. In such a backpack for multi-day fishing, they put bowlers, a first-aid kit, food, an ax and other little things necessary for spending the night. The backpack should be large, its volume is approximately 30-40 liters. In order to attach a tent to it, the backpack must be equipped with additional straps. and it is better to fasten the sleeping bag from above so that the useful area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe backpack is not eaten.

Well, if such a backpack is used instead of a bag for a short fishing trip, then a volume of 15-20 liters will suffice.

clothing

Sea fishing in the cool season - in winter, spring, autumn, requires special clothing. Clothing for spinning and fly fishing will be different from that. The main difference will be that the fisherman is constantly moving while fishing with a spinning rod, and does not sit on the ice.

The spinner's clothing consists of several layers. The first layer is thermal underwear, thermal socks on the legs. The second layer is fleece pants and a jacket. The third layer is the suit. Modern suit involves the use of membrane fabrics necessarily waterproof. The suit should not restrict movement and not interfere with walking. And, probably, most importantly, the suit should be light. Of the models offered, these are, first of all, suits from such well-known manufacturers as DAIWA, SHIMANO, Norfin. For the price, an acceptable suit for fishing with a Rokwell spinning rod.

All layers can be separated. Since fishing mostly takes place in conditions when water bodies do not freeze, which means that the air temperature will not be very low, instead of a suit, they put on a jacket that protects from wind, rain and moisture. In general, in order to protect yourself from splashes when fishing, it is good to wear windproof wetsuits.

For fishing with spinning on small rivers, you will need a wading rubber overall.

clothing

Shoes are now a lot of variety. Sneakers are worn depending on weather conditions. rubber boots, galoshes, wading boots made of EVA.

It can be concluded that modern spinning equipment requires significant costs, but nevertheless, fishermen go to these expenses. The excitement, adrenaline, good rest that a person gets while fishing with spinning covers everything with a vengeance!

Folk sign: You can’t share bait with a stranger while fishing, you can give him hooks, fishing line, but in no case bait. There will be no cool!

I ate dog on boxes, bags and backpacks for fishing. Tried different ways to carry fishing junk and share my findings here.

Over time, the spinner acquires belongings so much that the question arises: “How to carry all this with you?”. To have everything in one place, to be in order. And to be convenient, and to be at hand. There are many hoteliers. What options do we have here? Some I got to run:

1. Traditional backpack.


The backpack is convenient for coastal fishing with long transitions: if we walk more than we catch :)
Pros:
- Roomy;
- Does not interfere with walking;
- Does not hang out - you can bend over the fish and the backpack will remain in place.
Minuses:
- To get something, you almost always need to shoot it from the back. Tiring if you have to do it often.
- Pulls the back, hinders movement a little - during long fishing, even a lightly loaded backpack wants to be removed from the back.
- You can take off the backpack, but it's hard to put it on the ground - it collapses and gets dirty.

In principle, when coastal fishing, you can put up with shortcomings, but with the purchase of a boat, the backpack has discredited itself - it turns into a burden that takes up a lot of space, rolls around at random and forces you to delve into yourself in search of the right thing - it doesn’t smell in order.

2. Plastic suitcase.


Pros:
- Light;
- Durable;
- Convenient to store gear;
- Not afraid of water.
Minuses:
- Bulky;
- Rather expensive;
- There are few compartments, it is difficult to adapt to your needs, you have to adapt to a suitcase.
If we consider a suitcase of adequate dimensions, only baits are placed in it. Nothing else can be stuffed in, or it will all turn into bedlam - an insufficient number of useful compartments affects.
Reels, spare spool, gloves / hats, thermos - there is nowhere to put it. If you buy a suitcase made of plastic, in which all this will fit, you will get not a fisherman, but a tourist.

3. Shoulder bags

Pros:
- Usually light;
- Convenient to use - no need to remove from the back, just turn on the belt;
- Less drag on the back than a backpack.
Minuses:
- Usually they are made with a top cover-tongue, and not with a zipper - in order to get something, you need to unfasten tight fasteners and fold back the "tongue". This is a hat.
- Can slide when the angler's body is tilted forward;
- Not very roomy.

There are also waist bags, capacious vests, but all these elements give rise to essences - you can’t get by with just one thing - you need a fanny pack and a backpack, and you still have something to put in your pockets.

For coastal fishing, I have not yet been able to find an "accessory" that fully satisfies my needs - I fool around with a backpack and shoulder bags. But for fishing from a boat, I managed to find such an option - an iLure bag.
I chose for a long time, clambered stores offline and online, reviewed a bunch of options. The main criteria were:
- adequate size;
- capacity;
- the ability to keep the shape, and not turn, settling, into a bag;
- neat appearance;
- durability.
To put it under the side of the boat or at the transom, and get a kind of fishing chest of drawers - where everything is in one place and everything is easy to find.
For a guideline, what I need from a bag in terms of capacity - I need to pack something like this set:


Plus a thermos and a bottle of water.
Looked at this option:


At first glance, it does not differ much from a bag from the market with the inscription Yaguar, Bugatti or Nike - the same shape, the same pockets on the sides. But this is only at first glance.

Characteristics

Weight: 1 kg
Dimensions: 45.50 x 29.00 x 22.00 cm
Material: Oxford,Polyester

The bag arrived in a simple plastic bag.

This is how the bag itself looks like (the bag is empty, which is important - it does not turn into a shapeless lump)

The main compartment is a single volume.


The bottom is firm but not hard.
The volume can be approximately estimated from this photo (Coils of sizes 2000-4000)


There is one inner pocket in the bag - in the lid of the main compartment with inside. This is a transparent pocket for documents and a mobile phone.


Close-up of inner pocket seams


The outer side of the main compartment lid is a drawstring fastening system that is well suited for clothing.


Pulling mechanism


I loaded this bay like this:


You can open / close the bag, the fixed gloves / cap do not interfere, as they are fixed only on the lid.
On the sides of the bag are two symmetrical zippered pockets.


Each one can hold either two boxes of Meiho C1200NS


Or one "folk" with Ali (a cool box, by the way)


The pockets are also made of dense fabric, each zipper has two sliders. Runners with fabric "grabbers"


On the outside there are pockets seats for accessories, I posted as follows:


The second loop can be used like this:


What is the feature of the side pockets - when fully unbuttoned, they keep their shape and the contents of them do not spill out - you can safely keep them open while fishing and all the wobblers will be at hand without unnecessary movements.
On the front side of the bag there is one long pocket with a zipper (the zipper is also two-way)


The pocket is almost the entire length of the bag. Equipped:


I don’t see logos on zippers, but they have a decent move:

Above this pocket is a compartment for glasses, he played one of the key roles in choosing this particular bag - earlier he had already crushed two branded Polaroids. The compartment is hard.


Inside soft, glasses will not be scratched


In terms of useful compartments, this is, in principle, everything.
The bottom of the bag has legs


How did I place my kit from the beginning of the review? But like this:


What does it look like? Just like in the photo. An eggplant of water - for a visual assessment of dimensions.


What can you say about accessories? The plastic used in its manufacture is quite solid in appearance.


The loops for the shoulder strap are large - you can use them to "hook" accessories - you can see in the photo how I hooked the lipgrip.
There is an overlay on the belt so that the shoulder does not cut if you fill the bag with carps :)


On one of the handles, a “clutch” is sewn, which makes it possible to make one handle out of two.


Another joke: the logo on the bag is Velcro. You can stick your own if you find where to get it.

Now to shortcomings.
1. A decent weight of the bag itself - the material is dense.
2. On each slider, I had to melt the tails of the threads with a lighter.
3. In one place I found such a "fur". Cured with a lighter


4. For me, it’s still large for fishing in the hiking mode, for a boat - that’s it.

Bonus

As a bonus, there is an accessory that turned out to be even more convenient for me than I expected. I want to share mysku with the fishing audience.
These ones "

In the life of every person who is fascinated by spinning, there come moments when you grow out of the first box in which you put the first, consciously bought bait. Whether it's a spinner, a wobbler or the most ordinary "hoof" of 3 inches.

In the life of every person who is fascinated by spinning, there come moments when you grow out of the first box in which you put the first, consciously bought bait. Whether it's a spinner, a wobbler or the most ordinary "hoof" of 3 inches. Gradually, with the experience of fishing with spinning, more and more turntables, wobblers, all kinds of fasteners and leashes appear in the treasured box. Another one is bought to her ... Then another. And you are surprised to find out that everything that you wanted to take with you on a fishing trip no longer fits not only in your favorite, very first box, but also in the second, third ...

And you start looking for a box or a small suitcase, specially designed for baits and equipment. I had one. "Reversible", opening from two sides. But he didn't serve me for long. More precisely, each time turning over, inside the suitcase everything was “in a heap”, making a “rumbling” sound. Wobblers scratched each other, tees almost tightly intertwined.

Then there was more boxing. Already with three rows of boxes and special compartments for small things, polarized glasses and even a reel. Great boxing. Preserved baits and contents from accidental impacts in the car during transportation. One small minus is the size. In the boat, when there is a judge nearby (at competitions) and a partner, there is not enough space, to put it mildly. And a couple of times, hitting and hitting the corner of the box in the boat, I thought ... And I began to look for options for storing, transporting my modest, but quite capacious arsenal of spinners. At that moment, I caught my eye on the bait bag from the SALMO company. The article of the bag is Salmo H-3507.

Externally made of material of protective color. Appears to be tough and reasonably resistant to wear. The bag is equipped with two handles and a shoulder strap. For convenience, the handles can be folded together and “clamped” with a Velcro flap. It is very convenient when you put the bag on the floor, the handles do not crumble, you can freely take it with one hand.

The shoulder strap is not removable, with length adjustment and a wide shoulder pad. You can shorten or lengthen the strap for a comfortable fit.

A braided rubber cord is stretched on the top cover in a zigzag pattern. Under it I fit a rain jacket from a NORFIN suit - Escape Compact. Two small boxes of the “ultralight” class are compactly placed under it during transportation. Elastics with a tight-fitting jacket keep them from falling out when carried from car to boat. But I rarely do that unless my pockets are full.

The left and right pockets on the sides of the bag are equipped with mesh pockets, slightly larger than a pack with 3-inch rubber or a standard skein of braid.

The pockets themselves are quite capacious. In one of them I have a pack of doubles, two or three spare packs of rubber, and in my right pocket a couple of boxes with small turntables and ultralight wobblers.

I want to say that the depth of the pockets allows you to throw some little things to the bottom, like a folding knife, a couple of boxes of small twins and, as an option, I often leave one of these pockets for a small camera with a case.

The front pocket is almost the size of the bag itself. Big and deep. It perfectly fits an extractor, pliers, small scissors and all sorts of tools, even a little more than the size of a pocket.

On the back of the bag, unfastening the lock, there is access to many small pockets. They are conveniently located bags with spare leashes, clasps, swivels, hooks for "by-pass" and other necessary trifles.

On the inside of the front of the bag is another mesh pocket, the width of the entire valve. In size, you can put a pack of "rubber" in two rows.

Well, in fact, by unfastening the lock on the front side of the bag, access to the boxes themselves opens.

There are six boxes. Dimensions 28x18x4 cm. Stacked vertically, in a pile, from bottom to top. For ease of transportation, the boxes are fixed with a latch tie. Not allowing the boxes to fidget during transportation. But, to be honest, I don't use this screed. The bag is sewn exactly to the size of the boxes and, the front part of the bag, closed with a lock, does not allow them to “fidget”. Basically, they're not going anywhere.

The boxes themselves have adjustable dividers to change the size of the bait compartment.

One small nuance - the partition is solid, with cutouts according to the number of compartments. Those. you can increase the length of the box compartment, but you cannot change the size of the adjacent compartment. But in this situation, the Salmo box under the article 1500-86, 275x190x45 in size, helped. But the Flambeau box, article 4006, was even better. They both almost exactly match the size of the box from the bag. It is in both of them that it is precisely possible to adjust the length of the compartment without affecting the adjacent row. This is very handy for sorting, for example, jig heads by weight or size. It also turned out to be convenient for sorting various “edibles” by color.

And the standard boxes from the bag were “shared” into wobblers and all kinds of turntables according to the size of the compartments. Another advantage of the bag and additional boxes is that depending on the intended fishing, I sort the boxes by baits and take with me only those that I will need. Those. I just put the right boxes in my bag.

This is how I lived for two sports seasons, participating in various spinning competitions. The bag turned out to be very handy for baits. Sufficiently capacious, with the size of the boxes, in the compartments of which I put all the wobblers, turntables, rubber, various fasteners, leashes, hooks and a lot of everything that could be needed in the boat…

And he drew attention to an important point - silence inside and out. The material of the bag dampens all the movement of wobblers and jig heads in boxes. It does not rattle, does not knock on the sides of the boat, does not fidget with plastic on the trunk of the car. Need bait? I unfastened the lock (not even completely), pulled out the right box, found my favorite wobbler and put the box back into the bag. Moreover, it is not necessary to fasten the lock completely, it is enough to leave it half or 2/3 open for quick access to the boxes, and the front cover of the bag does not allow the contents to slip out.

Over the past two seasons, having fairly replenished my “ammunition” with wobblers and “rubber”, I began to think about whether I should put the contents of the boxes into different bags. Considering that the wobblers with which I mainly catch started from 10 cm, I began to look for a bag, namely a bag, for them. There were two criteria in the selection - ease of storage and transportation, plus fairly large "twitching" wobblers required a longer box, unlike the boxes in the Salmo bag. And the choice fell on the novelty of this year - the Lucky Jonn bag, article LJ-108.

Compact, stylish, in a contrasting black and red color, very similar in design to the Salmo bag that has been proven over the years.

The handles are also equipped with Velcro flaps. I repeat - very convenient. When you carry things loaded into the car and you need to “change” your hand, the handles do not fall apart to the left to the right, but put the bag on the ground and immediately grabbed the handle with the other hand.

The shoulder strap is removable, with powerful carabiners. It is also adjustable and has a wide shoulder strap.

The cover of a bag is equipped with a rubber coupler. My NORFIN Escape Compact rain jacket in terms of volume can also comfortably fit under a rubber tie.

On the left side of the bag there are two pockets for a penknife or a pliers-extractor and are fixed with a Velcro flap for reliability.

FROM right side There is a pocket, the width of the bag. Sufficiently deep and wide, which fits three or four packs of rubber or items of equipment, the size of the pocket.

On the front side, almost the entire length of the bag, there is a pocket with an additional compartment on the outside. Deep and wide, for tools or equipment, hooks in small boxes or, alternatively, for a pair of ultralight boxes.

Having opened the lock with two "runners" in the upper part, we get to the contents of the bag.

The lid itself has two zippered pockets. In size, 2-3 packs of rubber, small-sized equipment or accessories for spinning fishing. The pockets are made of soft plastic, as I understand it, and are also protection from rain or splashes in the boat.

And the most important thing. For what, in fact, this bag was invented - fairly wide and roomy boxes. Size 36x22x5 cm.

The boxes are arranged vertically. Sufficiently dense, almost without free space fit into the bag. At the same time, it is not difficult to pull out any of them with one hand.

The boxes themselves are equipped with partitions that allow you to adjust the length of the cell depending on the size of the bait. In fact, given the size of the box, you can fit any spinning wobbler. True, for jerks, I think there will not be enough space, but for them there are their own, as wide boxes as possible.

Alternatively, you can disperse the partitions for the use of small and medium baits. Personally, I have my modest twitch kit perfectly placed.

Even the place is left for wobblers - new products from Lucky Jonn PRO SERIES, BASARA and ANIRA models.

I hope my modest practical experience will help you not to be distracted by the search for baits in boxes in your pockets or scattered in the boat, because they will all be right here, next to you - in your bag!
