Trout Fishing Lures Explained
from: Helping Us With FishingIf you are new to trout fishing or fly fishing it is sometimes a bit overwhelming to try to sort through the huge displays of trout fishing lures at bait shops and sporting good stores. Many anglers will tell you that often what fishermen find attractive and eye catching, trout could care less about. In addition with most types of fly and trout fishing the action of the rod and line is just as critical as the selection of trout fishing lures in landing the perfect fish.
Since there are many different sizes of trout in a lake it is important to match the tackle or trout fishing lures that you are using with the rest of the equipment. Typically the lighter the line and the rod that you are using the lighter the trout fishing lures should be as well. Ultra-lite trout fishing lures are best for smaller panfish and for getting trout to move from vegetation and cover up to the surface. Trout fishing lures aren’t just dry and wet flies, there are also spinners that are really effective for drawing trout out of hiding and getting them biting on lures.
Trout fishing lures are often described as plain or dressed. The difference is rather obvious, a plain lure will often have a silver spinner, brown, green , gray or other colored body and a single or treble hook a the end. Dressed trout fishing lures are often much more colorful and have feathers over the hooks or may have hair wings and tails in addition to the spinner and colored body. Some trout fishing lures may be patterned whereas others may be monochromatic.
Small crankbaits may also be used as trout fishing lures. These small, very tiny minnow looking baits are ideal for fishing just along weed beds. Typically they have a lip wish causes them to dive when being moved through the water. When the movement is stopped they naturally float towards the surface, giving a very natural and lifelike presentation. Often the larger trout will respond to this fishing style whereas they will ignore smaller trout fishing lures.
Many trout fishing lures are sold in combinations and pre-set packages which are a great way to get started. If you are buying a combination package try to get assorted sizes as well as plain and dressed trout fishing lures and keep a record of what type of lures work well in various water conditions, temperatures and different lakes and streams. This trout journal or record will help you in determining the style and type of trout fishing lures that are best suited for the lakes you typically fish and enjoy.
