Fishing tackle

Fishing tackle, also called fishing gear, is a general term that refers to the equipment used by fishermen while fishing.

Almost any equipment or gear used for fishing can be called fishing tackle. Some examples are lures, bait, lines, rods, reels, nets and trawls, downriggers, outriggers, gaffs, harpoons, clevises, floats, and traps.

Gear that is attached to the end of a fishing line, such as hooks, leaders, swivels, sinkers and snaps, is called terminal tackle.
