subject: Why You Need A Great Trout Fishing Lure [print this page] If you set your sights on a goal, one should not speculate. You have to take good aim and hit it. Timing is everything. But that is easier said than done especially if the target is a smart, slick, living, moving and thinking trout. Some of the very best practices of catching trout are handed down from generation to generation if you have a trout fishing family enthusiast. Knowing the basics such as environment, fish behavior and fish type will ensure you a good haul in each outing. Also, a good trout fishing lure will almost always decide your fishing fate for the day. The lure that you will use will determine if you'll be bringing in that coveted 20-pounder or just go home empty handed after a frustrating day of fishing. Lures are designed to resemble and move like the prey of a fish and are engineered to the fish's sense of territory, curiosity, and aggression. There are quite a few number of lures abound. The most common are Jigs. Jigs are fishing lures that have magnet or metal heads and a tail made of hair. The rod should be moved from time to time making the illusion that the lure is a prey-fish and enticing the unsuspecting trout to its doom. Another is spoon lures, made to resemble the inside of the table spoon and will look like a swimming bait fish or minnow. These types of lures also spin in the water, making it all the more attractive to trout and other fishes in general. Use this lure with minimal rocks in site as spoon lures tend to be caught very easily. There are also certain game fishermen who would go on night trout fishing trips. While this might not seem a great time to head out to your favorite stream to catch a trout, this is actually an effective way to get a bite as long as you have a different set of baits. This is also a great time for trophy trout fishing as trout are less inhibited at night and are not apt to take off with sudden movements or minimal noise.
Trout also have keen senses. They have an eye at detecting the line and some experts believe they can smell their prey as well. If you do use live bait for them, wash your hands with a scent free soap before handling the bait. It will also help getting your hands dirty with mud before having a go at those live baits. Once the trout is hooked, it's quite fun to reel them in as they do put up quite a fight while they jump and splash a bit.
In catching a trout, it is one of the most fun fresh water fish to hunt. Fishing for them involves backpacking and going in cool and serene locations as these kind of fishes avoid polluted bodies of water and rivers near cities. Hence, fishing for trout usually means a small vacation and a recreational outing with the family or your favorite buddies.
