What lures for what fish?

It depends on the type of fish. For example, trout like smaller flies while salmon prefer larger ones.

There are general trends that can be followed, however. Lures that are designed to resemble small fish or insects will generally be more successful in catching trout, while lures that imitate larger prey such as rodents or birds will work better for salmon and other large fish.

Additionally, different colors can also be effective in attracting certain types of fish. For example, brightly-colored lures often work well for panfish like bluegill and sunfish.

Walleye can be caught using a wide variety of lures. Jigs, jerk baits, spinners, and soft plastics are all common baits for walleye. The most popular colors for walleye vary depending on the time of year but typically include shades of green, white, chartreuse, and pink.

Bass like crankbaits, bream like jigs and soft plastics, catfish like live bait or stink baits, crappies like minnows or jigs, trout like streamers or dry flies.

There are many more specific lures for different types of fish, too many to list here. But this should give you a good starting point.

There are many different types of lures for many different types of fish. Some lures work well for bass, others for trout, and still others for salmon. It all depends on the type of baitfish the particular fish is feeding on and what color and size of lure will best match that baitfish.

One thing to keep in mind is that a lure needs to move in order to be effective. Fish see movement much better than they see still objects, so a good rule of thumb is to always use a moving lure when fishing.

Fish can be lured to bite various baits for different reasons. For example, some fish are attracted to live bait because it mimics prey that they naturally hunt, such as minnows or worms.

Other fish are drawn to shiny lures because of their natural curiosity – the flash of light confuses them and makes them think there might be food present. Still, others are attracted to strong odors, such as those from rotting meat or cheese.

The best way to determine what lure will work best for a particular type of fish is by doing some research on their feeding habits. Once you have a general idea of what they like to eat, you can start testing out different baits until you find one that they’re willing to bite.

Here are some general guidelines to get you started:

· Minnows and other live bait are good for targeting fish that eat the smaller prey, such as trout, perch, and crappie.

· Shiny lures, like spinners and spoons, work well for fishing in open water or areas with lots of light. They’re also good for attracting fish that are curious by nature, such as bass and walleye.

· Dark-colored lures, like soft plastics and flies, are ideal for fishing in murky water or during low-light conditions. These baits are often used to target fish that feed mostly on smaller prey, such as trout and panfish.

· Strong-smelling baits, like those made with Berkley’s Gulp! products can be effective for fishing in areas with a lot of aquatic vegetation. The strong scent helps attract fish that are looking for an easy meal, such as catfish and carp.

It depends on the type of fish you are targeting. Some bait may work for more than one type of fish, but there are specific baits that will work best for certain species.

For example, smaller bait fish work well for predatory fish such as bass, while earthworms are a popular choice for trout. There are many different types of bait available, so it’s important to do some research to find out what works best in your area.
