The best fishing lures

Can you put a craw on a shaky head?

Super-sizing a shaky head has become an effective tactic for flipping into heavy cover or fishing deep off-shore structure. For flipping into shallow cover select 1/4-, 3/8- or 5/16-ounce standup jigheads tipped with magnum-sized paddletail plastics, creature baits or craw worms.

What can a crawfish lure catch?

Crawfish are a major source of food for bass and other species of fish, so using crawfish lures can sometimes be your golden ticket for catching bass. Crawfish live on the bottom and tend to spawn in rocks from February through May. However, they can also be found in mud if there are no rocks around.

How do you identify a tiger muskie?

As far as identification, the easiest way to identify tigers is to look at its irregular, vertical, and dotted pattern. The irregular stripes come from the muskie and the dark dots are from the pike. Mix them and you get a very unique design. Also, the fins on a tiger resemble more of a pike with a more pointed tip.

What line do you use for smallmouth bass?

For most situations, 10 pound line will work well whether you are casting crankbaits or fishing with soft plastics. 8 to 12 pound test line is a good range. You usually don't have to go real heavy because you won't be fishing around as much heavy cover as you do when targeting largemouth bass.

What attracts largemouth bass?

Although artificial lures are the most ordinarily used, good baits also include nightcrawlers and small shad or crayfish. Bass are known for being tough fighters when reeling them in. Largemouth bass are most attracted to the color red.

How do you target perch?

Another method for finding perch is to troll a small worm tipped spinner rig with a bottom bouncer until you catch some. After you locate them, it's time to anchor up and do a little vertical fishing. Small jigs and jigging spoons tipped with leeches, chunks of night crawlers or minnows seem to work best.
