On Purchasing Salmon Fishing Lures

By Kenya England


Fishing requires artistic skills. Knowledge on bait fixing and how to plop the line in water is not enough. Understanding the feeding characteristics of the fish is the main thing in salmon fishing. You need to know the perfect time to go fishing and the techniques to use too. You should use the right salmon fishing lures for the trip to be successful.

Lax is lured by various baits but if the fishing technique is not right then it will be hard to catch them. That is why you should understand the basic types of the lures and how to use them before embarking on the fishing trip.

Baits can be either artificial or live. The live ones are used most of the times. Since they are actually alive, they are able to move on their own in water and it is easy for the fish to think that they are genuine. Their smell is an added advantage because it attracts a fish. Eggs are the leading live baits. They are bright, colorful and cheap. In addition, they happen to be the tastiest treats for salmon.

Another type of live lures is minnows. They are resourceful in catching many of the fish residing in freshwater bodies. To note is that they will only be beneficial to you if they are alive. Therefore, confirm they are not dead when you are hooking them. Sand shrimp will always deliver good outcomes when used in salmon fishing. They are expensive and hard to rig though. Nevertheless, if you have the time and money go for them.

Artificial baits are more common than the live ones. Silver spoon is the commonest. It has a hollow oval connected to the hook. The oval flares and flaps in water attracting the fish. Spinner bait is also a good alternative. It comes with metallic blades which ripple the water when they spin.

Cut plugs have a solid frame and resemble a small fish. They are heavily hooked. All artificial lax lures are shiny and brightly colored. Regardless of the lure type, color should always be considered. Because the fish species is found in the deepest parts of the river or lake, purple, green, UV or blue color should be used. These colors are clear even when the depth is dark.

The most preferred salmon fishing approach is trolling. The bait should be moving continuously. You should keep the bait on the move and change position frequently. Otherwise, the fish will realize the trap and go into hiding. That is why fundamentals of lax angling should be at your fingertips before you go fishing.

In trolling, divers or weights are used to get the bait to a specific depth. Salmon fishing should be done near the water body bottom. Because it is always on the move, ensure the lure is in a constant move too to get the attention of salmon. When using live baits you should cast them before the fish so that they can detect the smell. If all these aspects are considered keenly then the fishing tour will not be a headache to you. You will catch them easily and the activity will be fun.
