Predator Fishing Lures:

Ok below are some of the lures I'm currently using, each lure has its own use and catching capabilities, I'm quite lucky really as I have had quite a bit of success using the lures below and have never lost one to date. The lure to the left is one which I use on my local canal, I normally just walk from top to bottom with this trailing behind me whilst carrying out a jerking action with the rod.

The two lures you see below are called spinners and are ideal for Pike, Perch, Zanda, Trout and Bass fishing. Whilst these spinners are being retrieved they have a spinning action 'hence the name spinners'. I have caught both trout and perch on these but I have never had a pike on them.

Now here's a treat for you, below left are rubber worms. I purchased these when I was in Scotland fishing for Pollack. The hook which you see is attached to a weighted head which enables casting distance, if you have not already tried these then give it a go you won't be sorry! The plug to the right is one which my Dad gave me, he caught a 10lb Sea Bass in Scotland on that plug,

Casting lures is quite easy once you get the hang of it however being good at judging distances can be very advantageous to your fishing session. Being able to cast under fallen trees from different angles will produce good results. Lets take a look at some of the equipment you need for lure fishing. Before you rush out and purchase the best rods and reels on the market, you might find trying a cheap pike fishing pack to see if you like the sport. Pike packs contain all you need from rod to lure and are quite good value for money, these can be purchased from most tackle suppliers.
