Mystery Tackle Box

So my wife bought me a subscription to Mystery Tackle Box, the inshore saltwater edition. Here's my first box that came in. Pretty neat little service, not 100% sure that I'll keep it up for long, but it's going to be fun to try a few times. Here's my only question..... are the 4/0 hooks on those jig heads as huge as I feel they are?? I've never used a hook that large fishing inshore, surf, and pier. What the heck do I use those for??

If there was supposed to be a picture, it is not there.

4/0 would work for jacks, bull reds.....match the hook for the fish size.....big.....but smaller hooks catch them too.....I have tied a few over the years to throw on schools swimming by

How about now on this reply?

Pictures worked

This makes me wonder how many of my other posts didn't show pictures. Will someone go check my post in the DIY section about the cart wheels? Sorry, hijacking my own thread.

The member has to be logged in to see pictures. Member name and pass word required to see pictures and the "Fishing Reports" pages.

Well that makes sense! I was completely confused there for a minute!

Looks like a good haul this month!http://www.gulfshorespierfishing.com...230671-ios.jpg

What is the cost for these mystery boxes?

Looks like about $25 per month depending on the plan you choose

https://mysterytacklebox.com/subscribe/plan/

I have just the regular plan. They have a coupon for the first month that makes it $5, and every month after that is $15. There is also the Pro box, which is $25 per month. I talked with a few of my friends who had tried it, and they did it for a little while and then cancelled. They had no troubles cancelling. One of them has recently started back. It's just kinda fun.

I've also got the MTB subscription for about a year. I feel like they send way too many soft plastics, and from the research I've done, Lucky Tackle Box seems to send more topwaters/jerkbaits/etc that I would prefer. I'm considering switching, just haven't made the dive.

Just a little info for anyone looking to subscribe to this kind of service.

I'm probably not going to keep the subscription forever, but its fun for a while. Maybe like you suggest, I'll switch to LTB for a few months to see what they're about.

August's inshore saltwater box. Nice haul. I had planned on picking up some Unfair Lures when I got down there. At least there's one less to buy!

No picture today and I have signed in.

Rabidawise,
What is the tube of liquid beside of the Daiichi hooks?

See if the pics show up this time. J55, the tube of liquid is some kind of garlic scent. I'm sure catfish would love it, but I'm not sure which saltwater species would go for it.
