Top Freshwater Fishing Lures to Catch Bass

Freshwater fishing lures include a wide range of variety of types, colors and sizes for your discretion when fishing for trout in freshwater river streams. These lures are created to add enjoyment to fishing activities and are matched to a given situation of season, places and type of trout fish you are going to catch. Below is a brief explanation of common and effective lures for trout river fishing

Spoons. This lure is named after its shape which looks like a spoon head. Spoons are considered as the simplest lure which its simple movement of flickering and wobbling action imitating the movement of a live bait fish. This is the most suitable lure for beginners due to its simplicity and economical price.

Spinners. A spinner includes a blade that can freely move on a spindle to create a spinning or turning motion when it is retrieved from the water. The spinning movement creates a flashing effect caused by light reflection on the turning blade. This resembles the glittering fish scales and motion. It also provides the possibility to change the rotating speed of the blade by speeding up or slowing down the retrieval of the spinner.

Topwater lures. These kinds of lure are able to float on the surface of the water. Using this lure will create some excitement since you will be able to witness the trout fish taking down the lure. Providing the possibility to retrieve the lure on the water surface, top water lures are suitable choices for fishing in location with plenty of weeds.

Suspending lures. These kinds of lure provide neutral floating effect hence it will neither sink or rise. When it is placed at a certain depth it will remain at that level of depth. This makes it most suitable for chasing hidden trout close to the weed beds, rocky stones or banks.

Floating lures. Unlike the top-water lures that float on the surface, these floating lures float just beneath the water surface and is able to float to a depth of more than fifteen feet. The diving depth is determined from the fin point of view to the lure body. The smaller the angle to the lure body, the deeper it’s able to dive. The movement of the floating lure is also affected by the shape and size of vane and lure body. Floating lures are considered as a “must to bring along” for all lure anglers.

Sinking lures. These are perfect lures for deep-water fishing, where you can establish a preferred depth where the trout will strike the lure. The preferred depth is established by a counting down prior to the retrieval process. The same depth can then be applied in other casts to locate the school of trout. The distance of the sunk down lure within a given time is known as the sinking rate of the lure, which suggest the depth or distance of the fish location.

Soft baits. This type of lure is made of soft rubber and comes in a wide variety of forms and shapes, with attractive marching colors and sizes. It is suitable for saltwater and freshwater fishing. Soft baits can be used on weighted jig heads applied in the same way as the jerk bait providing a plug is used.

Jerk baits. These are passive or still lures that do not move by it self but should be made alive by the angler. Motions are created by shaking or jerking the fishing rod, or any movements that make the bait look alive. As far as it can go, the jerking of the lure can imitate a wounded or injured fish which is quite tempting for the trout fish.

Gnathonemus petersii Elephantnose Fish $19.99 The Elephant Nose is an interesting fish with a long appendage on its snout below the mouth that looks like an elephant’s trunk. Its body is gray to black with a slender forked tail. The Elephant Nose is a nocturnal fish, hunting and feeding mostly at night. It uses its long snout to help it find worms, insects, larvae, and small crustaceans in the substrate. It is important to provide smooth-sided gravel or fine sand so that it does not injure itself when looking for food in this way. Elephant Noses will accept most small live foods, but can usually be trained to eat frozen foods and sometimes, sinking pellets. The Elephant Nose is able to produce a weak electric discharge that it uses in courtship and in locating prey. This fish is relatively peaceful toward other fish of similar size, but is territorial and aggressive with its own kind. For this reason they are best kept one per tank unless the aquarium is very large, about 200 gallons or more. Provide a heavily planted tank with soft, acidic water and subdued lighting. This provides natural hiding places and will help minimize stress. Elephant noses are sensitive fish, and are easily stressed by poor water quality. Frequent water changes are a must to keep this fish healthy. Use caution if it becomes necessary to add medications or other harsh chemicals to the tank as many of these products are harmful or fatal to the elephant nose. If using medications, read the instructions carefully to be sure that the product is safe for scale-less fish. It may be necessary to use a mild medication or use a product at half-strength.

Scale Insect $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The scale insects are small insects of the order Hemiptera, generally classified as the superfamily Coccoidea. There are about 8,000 species of scale insects.Most scale insects are parasites of plants, feeding on sap drawn directly from the plants vascular system. A few species feed on fungal mats and fungi, e.g., some species in the genus Newsteadia in the family Ortheziidae. Scale insects vary dramatically in their appearance from very small organisms (12 mm) that occur under wax covers (some look like oyster shells), to shiny pearllike objects (about 5 mm), to creatures covered with mealy wax. Adult female scales are almost always immobile (aside from mealybugs) and permanently attached to the plant they have parasitized. They secrete a waxy coating for defense; this coating causes them to resemble reptilian scales or fish scales, hence the name. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.

Scale (Zoology) $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles In most biological nomenclature, a scale is a small rigid plate that grows out of an animals skin to provide protection. In lepidopteran (butterfly and moth) species, scales are plates on the surface of the insect wing, and provide coloration. Scales are quite common and have evolved multiple times with varying structure and function. Scales are generally classified as part of an organisms integumentary system. There are various types of scales according to shape and to class of animal. Fish scales are dermally derived, specifically in the mesoderm. This fact distinguishes them from reptile scales paleontologically. Genetically, the same genes involved in tooth and hair development in mammals are also involved in scale development.

Pseudochromis fuscus Golden Dottyback $24.99 The Golden Dottyback is actually a color variant of the Brown Dottyback ( Pseudochromis fuscus ). As a color variant, the color of each fish can vary. They are most often seen as solid yellow with light scale high-lights, giving it a shimmery appearance, but the color can range from pale yellow to darker brown. Dottybacks are popular and hardy aquarium fish that range greatly in size, temperament and coloration. Most come from the genus Pseudochromis (and the term Dottyback is often used interchangeably with Pseudochromis) but several other smaller genuses can also be found, including the new genus Pictichromis which contains the very common and popular Strawberry Dottyback ( P. porphyrea ), Diadema Dottyback ( P. diadema ) and the Bicolor Dottyback ( P. paccagnallae ). Most species will normally accept frozen foods like brine shrimp and krill soon after acclimating to the home aquarium. Larger species may accept larger meaty items like pieces of scallop, shrimp, clams and similar items while smaller species should be given brine shrimp, mysis shrimp and other smaller foods. Flake food or pellet food can be added once the fish has become established in the aquarium to supplement their diet and add more variety. Dottybacks are territorial fish, and should only be kept one to a tank. They will get along with all other types of fish as long as their home “territory” is not disturbed by other fish although some species can become very large and aggressive. They also need plenty of hiding places to feel comfortable. They are ideal for reef aquariums, although they may try to eat small ornamental shrimp like Sexy Shrimp ( Thor sp. ) and Anemone Shrimp ( Periclimenes sp. ). Some dottybacks, especially several from the Pseudochromis genus, are well known and sought after for their habit of eating nuisance Bristleworms.
