I learned this tip from a former FLW coangler:

To help stop backlashing, put your hook on a tree and walk off a full cast and then a little more. Put some tape across the spool. Wind it back in. The backlash won't build from the core of the reel, and won't be as much of a nightmare.

Never take a sleeping pill and a laxative at the same time.

That's along the same lines of........when on the boat all day for fishing, don't eat granola bars and drink apple cider 

If your soft plastics aren't swimming true, or have spent all winter bunched up in the bag and the boot tail is all crooked on little swimbaits, put them in some hot water for a few seconds and straighten them out, allowing them to dry before storing them carefully again.

 

Fluekmaster had a video on this from what I recall but I can't seem to find it

In the warmer months I bring a swimsuit with me to change into it so if I have to jump into the water while trailering the boat I won't get my clothes wet and ride home uncomfortable.

I change out of it by the boat. So far, no one has pointed and laughed.

At your Senko...

In the winter time... don't eat the yellow snow...

Stay way from fig bars too.Night mare story  there for me.

Put 2 or 3 silica gel packs in your lure boxes to keep your hooks from rusting. It is an inexpensive way to keep rust at bay.

Keep a 3 foot length of weed eater string in the boat to clear out the water stream out of your engine if needed. Just thread it in the outake and clear any obstruction.

My Wife's kitchen scissors are as good as any at cutting braid.

Put a plastic sandwich bag on a gulp jar before closing it. It will stop any leaks.

Oh my!  I used my wife's kitchen shears a few times. When she found me sitting in the boat with her shears cutting fishing line........well you can imagine the response.
