BIGJOE’S TACKLE SHOP

Gear that’s earned a spot on BigJoe’s boat

Rods, reels, tackle and sun gear hand-picked by a Puerto Rico fisherman for salt water, from the pier to the blue water.

Out on the bay, in the mangroves or on the open ocean, the everyday struggles get left behind at the dock. For those few hours, it’s just you, the smell of the sea and a feeling of peace, until the bite starts and it’s nothing but joy and excitement.

  • Picked by a fisherman, not an algorithm
  • Tested in Caribbean salt water
  • Buy safely through Amazon

How BigJoe picks gear

No paid placements. Every pick has to earn its spot.

  1. 1
    Fished, not just listed

    Picks come from decades of fishing the Chesapeake Bay, the Outer Banks and now the reefs and mangroves of Puerto Rico.

  2. 2
    Built for salt water

    Sun, salt and sand destroy gear. BigJoe favors sealed reels, corrosion-proof guides and clothing rated UPF 50.

  3. 3
    Every budget

    Each department has budget, mid-range and premium choices, so beginners and pros both find the right fit.

  4. 4
    Honest and disclosed

    Affiliate links are always marked. Brands can’t buy a spot or a good word on this site.
