Segment 1: Best Lures and when you should use these lures

For the first segment, we will be talking about the best lures to use and when you should use these lures. There are many different types of lures and different lures are used at different times of the year. If you need help tying knots on these lures, go to YouTube, they have amazing videos on how to tie easy knots.So the best lures in general are:

● Crank Baits-Spring and Fall

● Buzz Baits -Summer Through Fall

● Spinner Baits- Fall and Early Spring

● Frogs(Plastic)- All throughout Summer

● Popper baits- Summer, Spring, deep into fall

● Whopper plopper baits- Summer

● Senko’s!! Anytime in the year

● Trick Worms- Anytime in the year

There are many ways to rig a senko or hook a senko. One way you could rig a senko is a wacky rig or a texas rig. I recommend both because both of the way’s are very effective. Some stores you can get these lures from are Dick Sporting goods, Walmart, Bass pro Shops, and a local tackle store.

Segment 2: Best colors to use and how to work these specific lures

So, The best colors to use for lures are always bright colors. The bright colors attract the fish and make the fish bite. For example, some good colors to use on lures for freshwater fish are green, white, red, orange,yellow, and pink. But, for plastic worms, you can use almost any color. The fish get very confused when they see a senko and actually believe that the plastic worm is real. Some colors you should get for a worm are: dark green with purple flakes, white, purple with red or green flakes, and pink.

Segment 3: What lures to use for specific fish

Lastly, what lures you should use for the fish you are targeting. Each fish has different tastes in what size and color lures they like. For example, pike and muskie go for huge and colorful lures. One specific lure big pike or muskie go for is huge plastic lures or big jerk baits. A couple lures bass go for are crank baits, spinning lures, or senkos. The lures bluegill love are small senko’s or rooster tails. Crappie are kind of like bluegill and like the small lures also. Lastly, for catfish, they like to go for spooks. Spooks are kind of like jerk baits.
