Evolution of tool useAnthropologists believe that the use of tools was an important step in the evolution of mankind. Humans evolved an opposable thumb — useful in holding tools — and increased dramatically in intelligence, which aided in the use of tools.

It is in the domain of media and communications technology that a counter-intuitive aspect of our relationships with our tools first began to gain popular recognition.

You will also need an anchor. If fresh water fishing, I suggest a mushroom type anchor and if saltwater fishing, get a bruce claw anchor. In addition to your rod and reel, you'll need a kayak paddle, a stringer, a bait bucket (if using live bait) and a net. I also use a paddle leash and rod floats, not leashes. Rod leashes are in the way. Not essencial but I strap a crate in the back well of my kayak to put my tackle and other stuff in. I also used PVC to make extra rod holders on the crate. This is used to secure my net and bruce claw anchor. The milk type crate just keeps my stuff drier than just sitting in water.
