What Lures, What Fish? Spoons Considered the most simple of all other lures, they got their name because they look like the head of a spoon. They act for the bait fish by doing a flickering and wobbling movement or action. Spoons are excellent for starters in lure fishing; easy to use and very affordable. Spinners The spinner is basically a blade wherein it does a rotating action on a spindle when being retrieved or taken back through the water as well as it gives off a flash as light is being reflected on the revolving blade, characterizing the bait fish's scales and movements. This is a lure that is flexible because only can one verify and know the retrieve depth by the period or time frame one leaves before one starts a retrieve, one can also alter the speed of the revolving blade arou

The days of threading a worm onto a hook, casting out, and hoping for the best are long gone. Advancing technology has taken fishing to a new level.

There is a different kind of lure for every imaginable situation. One of the latest trends in lures is what is called the glowing lure. Avid fishermen who have had some experience with these types of lures all agree that they simply catch a lot of fish. The secret behind a glowing lure is the light it is able to produce underneath the water. There are two types of glowing lures: those with photoluminescence, like a glow in the dark stick, and those with fluorescent pigments. Many f

When trolling lures for Blue marlin aboard ‘Bite Me’, we run a standard spread of four lures off bent butt chair rods and use Penn International 80STWs. We run a long and short corner from the transom rod holders and a long and short rigger from the chair. Sometimes we run a teaser such as a spreader bar or a Pakula Witchdoctor. We never run a shotgun. We always aim to tag & release all billfish and use Billfish Foundation tags. We generally use lures that imitate or approximate to the baitfish in the area such as skipjack & Yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi or flying fish.Although We use wire rigs a lot because of wahoo, we don’t double the wire inside the skirt to make a stiff rig. We just use a single wire to the hook allowing some flexibility and swing. Lures are tooth-picked or hooks set with the point or points upwards. Two hook rigs have the hooks offset at about 45 degrees. Our recommendations are for normal general fishing on a reasonably calm day in bright or slightly overcast

A article found on iol.co.za has a look at a alternative look at the booming south African ecomomy Source (iol.co.za) As long as South Africa's economy continues to boom, immigrants from neighbouring states would continue to flood the country, Home Affairs Minister Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula said on Thursday.Addressing MPs during her budget vote debate, Mapisa-Nqakula said economic migration was an international phenomenon confronting every region of the globe."There is not a country in the world which does not face an influx from its neighbours if it is economically more stable."It is logical that our economy would be a magnet for economic migrants from the region," she said.Mapisa-Nqakula, who was speaking against the backdrop of mounting concerns on the growing number of refugees in the country, particularly Zimbabwean citizens, reminded MPs about the important role played by migrant workers in the development of the country's economy.

When targeting Pacific Sailfish, we mostly use bait & Switch techniques or troll rigged skip baits. Sometimes however we want to cover more ground and increase by-catch of other species such as Wahoo, Spanish Mackerel, Yellowfin tuna and mahi mahi – so occasionally we run lures. The Sailfish season coincides with the Wahoo season so all lures are rigged on 125lb 49 strand wire. Make the leader long or the sail will use the lure head weight to throw the hooks when he jumps. We tag 4 out of 5 sail hook-ups when using long leaders. We find our lure spreads work best at about 6kts in most weather conditions. This is what works for us. Its not necessarily what will work in your neck of the woods ! SHORT CORNER 1. Wellsys Medium Talai – Purple or lumo green 2.

From May to October, packs of wahoo congregate along the Great Astrolabe Barrier Reef. The average size of wahoo is about 50lbs with a good fish weighing in at 75lbs. Each wahoo pack usually has a fish of close to 100lbs. We almost always use lures when targeting wahoo however we often get jumped by fish when bait & switch fishing for sailfish. If your teaser is rigged with mono…wave bye bye to the end of your daisy chain…. The biggest problem we encounter is a mass attack, wahoo porpoising in at break-neck speed, every rod in the spread going off and then multiple bite-offs as other wahoo attack lines or swivels cutting through the water. We combat this by trolling a full spread until we find a pack and then switch to towing just two lures. Often, just a garfish (ballyhoo) on a two hook rig with a small pink skirt on the nose. Trolling speed is usually around 6-7kts. Most wahoo skippers around the world troll faster. Here, higher speeds do not increase strike rates. Last week on t
