Shrimp for fish

The Chasebaits MudBug can be fished in a number of different ways; let it sit on the bottom in a defensive position, allowing the floating claws and vibrating legs to do the work, or slow crawl or twitch it over your favorite structure and its thumping tail will imitate a fleeing crawdad.

The most common saltwater fish you'd catch with shrimp would be anything that feeds along the bottom. The most common freshwater fish you'd catch with shrimp would be catfish. You can also use live shrimp to catch bass or other larger fish but I generally use it in saltwater, and it'll catch pretty much anything.

In a broad categorical sense, the best salmon lures for rivers are spinners, buoyant drift rigs, casting spoons, flies, and wide-wobbling diving plugs. Silver or chrome are especially popular hard-lure finishes, and many river salmon lures are enhanced with a bright color, particularly orange or red/pink.
