Stardew Valley Two Tackle Slot Rules
Mechanics / Bait plus two tackle slots and stacking exceptions
The rod can equip bait and two tackles at once. Most tackle effects stack, but two Sonar Bobbers or two Curiosity Lures do not add extra benefit, so pair duplicate tackles only when the effect truly stacks.
Facts and route notes

Focus: Bait plus two tackle slots and stacking exceptions
Checklist: Use two tackle slots deliberately instead of duplicating every favorite tackle. Avoid double Sonar Bobber and double Curiosity Lure setups. Keep spare tackle inventory in a chest because tackle does not stack neatly in bags.
