Angler's countdown calendar – small gear that gets used, not shelved

A countdown calendar for people who would rather stand on a riverbank than in a shopping mall. It contains 24 practical pieces of tackle. A good answer to the question of what to give someone who already has everything for fishing.

What makes this tackle calendar worth it

Big fishing gifts are risky because anglers are picky about rods and reels. Small tackle is always welcome, since it gets lost or used up. The variety helps for different spots and conditions.

• Artificial bait: several styles for different waters
• Hooks and extras: the small parts that always run out
• Varied set: builds a broader kit for different conditions
• Gift for anglers: fits the hobby without guessing at rod sizes

Twenty-four reasons to plan the first trip of the new year.

Open a door each day and sort the contents into the right tray. By the end of the month the gear is ready for spring. The empty calendar box can be kept for storing small spare parts.
