Must-Have Berkley Gear for Every Fishing Trip

When it comes to Berkley fishing accessories, it’s all about efficiency and reliability. Our team uses these tools day in and day out, on the boat, on the ice, and at the cleaning table. 

For cutting and rigging, choose from line scissors for clean cuts on braid and finesse lines, quick-release line clippers for one-handed use, or heavy-duty pliers and wire cutters when working with hooks, leaders, and heavier gear.

When it comes to fish handling, Berkley grippers give you secure control on toothy species like pike, while gloves offer added grip and warmth in cold conditions — and when the day's catch is ready to clean, both manual fillet knives and electric fillet knives are available depending on whether you need precision or speed.

Two of Berkley's best-selling accessories are Berkley PowerBait Attractant and Berkley Gulp! Alive! Attractant, trusted by anglers to trigger more strikes and keep fish holding on longer.

We recommend building a reliable tackle box you can trust and these are the items that save time and prevent frustration on every trip.

Berkley Accessories FAQs

Product information

What Berkley accessories are essential for every angler?

At minimum, every angler should carry attractant, pliers, line cutters, and a fish gripper. Pliers help with safe hook removal and bending hooks back into shape, while line cutters or scissors ensure clean cuts, especially with braid. A fish gripper gives you better control when landing fish, particularly toothy species like pike. Adding a scale and multi-tool can also help track catches and handle quick adjustments on the water.

Does fish attractant actually work?

Yes and there's real science behind it. Fish have an incredibly acute sense of smell and taste, and attractants work in two key ways: they release a scent trail that draws fish in, and they make your bait taste natural enough that fish hold on longer before spitting it out. Studies show that a bass can spit out a lure in the blink of an eye if it tastes unnatural — but applying a scent can trick a fish into holding your bait for five, ten, or even thirty seconds longer, giving you more time to feel the strike and set the hook. Attractants also help mask human odours like sunscreen, fuel, or bug spray that can repel fish without you knowing it. Berkley PowerBait Attractant and Berkley Gulp! Alive! Attractant are two of the most trusted spray-on options available — simply apply to any lure, soft plastic, or hard bait before your cast.

Are Berkley tools good for ice fishing?

Yes. Berkley accessories are built to perform in cold, harsh conditions. Tools like line clippers, gloves, and ice fishing accessories are designed for easy use with cold hands or gloves on. Many anglers rely on them for perch, walleye, and crappie, where quick adjustments and efficient handling can make a big difference in freezing temps.

Should I choose a manual or electric fillet knife?

A manual fillet knife gives you better control and precision, making it ideal for smaller fish or detailed filleting. An electric fillet knife is the better choice when cleaning larger quantities of fish, like after a successful walleye trip. It reduces fatigue and speeds up the process, especially when paired with a knife sharpener to keep blades performing at their best.

Why use a fish gripper instead of handling fish by hand?

A fish gripper provides a secure hold on the fish’s jaw, giving you better control during hook removal and photos. This is especially important for pike and walleye, where sharp teeth can cause injury. It also helps reduce stress on the fish by allowing for quicker, safer handling, ideal for catch-and-release situations.
