Fishing Boat Accessories You Need

Fishing is a great pastime whether you want to compete or you just want to enjoy the sport. Our team at 72 Marine Sales strives to provide all the boating resources you need, so we’ve made a quick list of fishing boat accessories you might want to have!

1. Tackle Box

A fisherman always needs a good tackle box, especially if they plan to board a fishing boat. You want to find something that is durable enough to withstand a lot of use and you should also look for an option that’s waterproof, just in case. When you search for a tackle box, make sure to get one that has the right amount of storage. 

2. Rod Holders

An accessory that you absolutely need on your fishing boat is a rod holder, or several. They can be permanent or removable and you can select an option that works with your specific type of fishing! 

3. Coolers and Prep Tables

If you’re fishing to not just catch and release, then you need to have the right equipment to store and prep your fish. You always need a good cooler to chill your catch, but you can also add a preparation table to filet your catch right away. That way you’ll have the freshest fish!

4. Safety Gear

The last accessory that’s a must-have on your boat is safety gear. You should have the appropriate safety equipment for your boat and also for yourself. Make sure to have life jackets for every passenger you have on board and always have a safety plan in place.
