I searched around and could not come up with a good list of terminal tackle that is needed. I am looking to get a good set up and pretty much a newb. I know I need differnt hooks, but weights(worm, sinker, screw in), beads, swivels(ball bearing or regular) split rings, rattles and so on  :-/. What do I need to cover the bases.

Thanks

Starting from scratch; I would go with tungsten for all my weights.

WELCOME! Tungsten is good but alot more expensive!

Welcome aboard!

WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome aboard.  I personally don't need alot of terminal stuff.  Some bullet weights in different sizes, ewg and circle hooks in 2 sizes......some carolina rig beads and a few swivels.

Thanks for the help guys, I grew up Walleye fishing and got bite by the Bass bug last spring.

I live on Pontiac lake. I am close too a ton of others though. Do you get up this way fishing much?

Don't go crazy buying abunch of stuff at first.  As you fish more you will know what you need as far as terminal tackle.  Tungsten weights are great.

I'm with LBH.  For starters, bullet weights (say 1/4 & 3/8 oz.), 8mm beads (glass or plastic), couple size hooks (maybe 2/0 & 4/0), and some barrell swivels.  That could get you by without a ton of cost.
