What Lures, What Fish?
Spoons
Considered the most simple of all other lures, they got their
name because they look like the head of a spoon. They act for
the bait fish by doing a flickering and wobbling movement or
action. Spoons are excellent for starters in lure fishing; easy
to use and very affordable.
Spinners
The spinner is basically a blade wherein it does a rotating
action on a spindle when being retrieved or taken back through
the water as well as it gives off a flash as light is being
reflected on the revolving blade, characterizing the bait fish's
scales and movements. This is a lure that is flexible because
only can one verify and know the retrieve depth by the period or
time frame one leaves before one starts a retrieve, one can also
alter the speed of the revolving blade around the spindle, by
either speeding up or slowing down one's retrieve. For the Trout
and Mullet, a smaller size is recommended, and a larger spinner
with the pike liking, along with the treble hook in a red wool.
Surface lures
These lures are used on the water surface and considered to be
the most explosively thrilling of all lures as one could
actually see the fish taking the lure, and the anticipation and
the expectation of one looking forward of the take is an
exciting experience. The fish can be completely seen exiting the
water when they send off at a surface lure. Since these lures
are being retrieved on the surface of the water, they can be a
good choice in areas that have a lot of weed.
Suspending plugs
Having neutral buoyancy and resistance, when the plug has dived
or dropped to the required depth and left alone, it will
continue on being suspended to that depth. For this reason, this
type is perfect for pursuing your prey hidden near the weed
beds, rocks or banks. When yanked in order to imitate life to
the plug, it causes some crashing attack from your target.
Floating drivers
A necessity for all lure anglers, they cover a wide scope in
diving depths; beginning from just beneath the surface up to
fifteen feet or more. The diving depth is established on the
point of view of the vane or fin to the body of the lure. The
lesser the angle to the body of the lure the deeper it can dive.
The shape as well as the size of the vane and the lures body
contributes to the movement of the plug in the water.
Sinking plugs
These are excellent for deep water fishing, wherein the retrieve
can start soon as the preferred depth is reached. This is
accomplished by counting down before one starts the retrieval
process. Therefore, the same depth will be reached whenever one
casts. The distance that the lure has sunk down in a particular
time, will give a suggestion of how deep or how far down the
fish are situated when they strike; thus this is called the sink
rate of the lure.
Soft baits
This is soft rubber bait that comes in various shapes and forms,
with matching sizes and colors. These are commonly used for sea
and fresh water fishing, which can be used on a weighted jig
head handled in the same manner as the jerk bait, being managed
as a plug is used.
Jerk baits
Having no movement of its own when in the water, the angler
gives life to this lure; whenever the rod trembles or shakes or
jerks, this lure can appear to have life. This lure for the most
part, mimics an injured or wounded fish that the prey fish find
tempting, and be compelled to thrust or lunge at.
