What are minnow lures used for?

Such names include crankbait, wobbler, minnow, shallow-diver and deep-diver. The term minnow is usually used for long, slender, lures that imitate baitfish, while the term plug is usually used for shorter, deeper-bodied lures which imitate deeper-bodied fish, frogs and other prey.

What is a suspending minnow?

A plug lure made to resemble a minnow. Effective in attracting freshwater fish from both surface and floor.

How deep is too deep walleye?

Flat basins at 40+ feet can be productive for walleyes. The only problem with catching them that deep is that you usually can not release them because their eyes will be bulged out and their air bladders might be popping out of their mouths.

How do you attract sailfish?

The premier method for targeting sailfish is kite-fishing with live bait. A kite spreads baits out over a greater swath of water and holds them at the surface, where their swimming and thrashing dispatches distress vibrations that ring the dinner bell.

Can you catch mackerel at night?

A few species do not generally feed in the dark and they include wrasse, plaice, mullet and mackerel, although there are exceptions. Calm, clear nights are generally more productive than when the sea is rough and coloured because the fish often feed much closer to shore in daylight in such conditions.

What do Sauger fish eat?

Young sauger eat zooplankton and insect larvae. Adults also eat fish, leeches, and crayfish. The sauger prefers large rivers but may also be found in reservoirs.
