A fully-integrated fishing caddy system which generally includes a five gallon bucket as a base and a padded lid enclosing the interior of the bucket, the padded lid further serving as a seat for the user. The bucket includes at least one rod holder which can be rotated to different angles to suit the user. There are hooks in the bucket for receiving the fishing line and thereby preventing the wind from blowing the line around, resulting in faster detection of catches. Other features include the ability to place caught fish into the bucket via a chute, cup holders, and drainage spouts.
