Snares are an object attached to the end of the line used by anglers to attract a catch. It usually makes movements, sounds, and vibrations that imitate actual prey. The color also helps them be noticed by target catches.

The bait is attached to the line and rod for easy retrieval after casting on. While the bait is pulled during retrieval, it makes swimming movements and sounds luring predators to bite it. After biting, the hooks connected or hidden inside the decoy secures the catch.

Custom fishing lures like the ones utilized in rigging tuna are adjoining the line through a knot or a part called a swivel. The line is in turn connected to the spool which is pulled back to retrieve the decoys. A decoy that is part of deep sea angling equipment is usually pulled behind a boat to mimic swimming movements.

Spoon lures, as the name suggests, look like a spoon and the light it flashes under water attract predators. Plugs, on the other hand, are decoys that have the body of the prey. Artificial flies are decoys that are done especially to be utilized with a fly rod for fly-angling.

Snares can also be made by gathering together pieces of angled wire and fitting a hook and a spinner to it, called spinner bait. Another decoy type, the swim bait, looks very much like a live prey. Several other types have been developed due to advances in technology. Most of these new types are looking more like live prey and are becoming more effective as hooks.
