Opening a Mystery Tackle Box is always fun. Even if you bought it for yourself, it's like opening a Christmas present, not knowing exactly what's inside—but feeling quite confident you're going to love it.

How much did I love my new Swimbait Sensation Box? Not even ten minutes on the water and I hooked into not one largemouth bass... but two! That's a first for me. If that isn't a testimonial for the effectiveness of the baits in the Mystery Tackle Box, I'm not sure what is.

The Mystery Tackle Box Swimbait Sensation Kit

The Swimbait Sensation Bass Fishing Kit has a retail price of $49.99 USD. Inside you'll find 5-7 premium swimbaits and matching terminal tackle from proven brands, as well as a limited edition decal and QR code giving access to the About My Box page and Dribble Magazine.

Swimbaits are designed to perfectly mimic the size, shape, and movement of baitfish, triggering a positive feeding response from bass wherever you fish one. Available in both soft and hard plastic versions, the swimbait is a simple bait to work, falling into the 'chuck and wind' category.

They're an excellent choice to quickly and effectively cover water, or target specific cover such as fallen timber, rip-rap, boat docks, or grass beds. The swimbait is guaranteed to get bit when largemouth and smallmouth bass have the feed bag on.

With over 10 million boxes shipped to date, the Mystery Tackle Box company is definitely doing something right. And by offering subscription plans and one-off tackle kits - covering a multitude of species and techniques - anglers have dozens of fantastic options to choose from.
