Tuesday, October 16, 2012
By Allan Hatchell
Commercial fish baits are based on custom fishing lures and by definition is an object attached to the end of the line. It will mimic the prey of the fish to attract it. The modern type was done commercially in the 1900s in Michigan. A line is not complete without the bait at the end.
When used for fish casting with a fly pole, it is continuously unreeled and pulled in making the bait swim or create an attractive sound to fish. Hooks are also used in deep sea fishing equipment and is called jigs. These types can be used up to 300 meters in depth and are designed with a weighted hook in the end with a lead head.
For tuna rigs, a daisy chain or what the Japanese call long line consists of multiple ones rigged with hooks. The advantage of using the lures is a reduction of the use of food bait. For catch and release angling, it provides for a better mortality rate for the released fish.
Now we have the hobbyist fisherman with their numerous lure types that fall into many categories. The surface type, known as stick baits, float and resemble prey on top of the water. They make popping sounds if skillfully used and can be an effective way to attract fish. Artificial flies are designed to resemble all manner of fish prey and are used with the fly rod and reel.
The other type is the crank bait known as plugs. It has a fishlike body shape and has dissimilar movements. Spinner baits are spinner mechanisms with wire bent at a 60 degree angle with a flashy spinner and a hook at the lower end. Another well known is the soft plastic type that can resemble fish prey like worms, lizard, and others.
You will never hear the end of it which bait is better. The market has mass produced bait that you can even put your corporate logo into the body and use it as corporate give-away. There are the custom made, handmade designs that you can have done to your hearts delight. You can always experiment which best fits your style.
Angling is a growing sport and does not have age limits to it. An experienced sportsman will definitely go for custom fishing lures over commercial ones. If you are new to the sport, ask a dealer for advice.
