All About Spinning Lure In Fishing

By Mary Evans


If you are not familiar with fishing, the term spinning lure may be new to you. But as the name suggests, these are some of the equipment used in fishing. They are made in a way to lure fish to the bait thus trapping them. Spinner lure were introduced as equipment was improved. They have made fishing a whole lot easier than it previously was.

The spinner lures have one characteristic in common. All of them are made out of metal blades. As the name suggests, they spin when they are inside the water. This spinning is made to mimic the movements of a small fish. This way, other fish may get the impression it is just another fish and not be under any kind of suspicion that it is bait.

The blades used in making the spinners vary is both size and shape. These are made for different kinds of water currents. The different types of blades that are used include: Colorado, Indiana, Indiana fluted, Turtleback, French, inline and willow. A wide blade moves slow and emits large vibrations while a narrower one moves fast and gives smaller vibration waves.

The narrowest of the blades are mostly used in deep calm waters and even waters that have plants in them to avoid getting stuck. This includes the inline and the willow. Using these takes a lot less time in fishing thus saving time in the long run. On the other hand, the turtleback and the French are much wider and therefore work under more current and water that is not as deep.

These blades can be used in both salty and fresh water. However, you should know the type of water you are going to be fishing in so that you pick out the most suitable blade. The narrower the blade, the lower the water resistance. If the water resistance is law, so is the strength of the vibrations emitted. This is why it works best in still water.

Depending on the preferences of anglers, many prefer to use a bare blade depending on the spinning and vibration for attractions. There is also the option of using plastic tail dressings which also work especially when they are light. The purpose of these dressings is to give the illusion of a small fish swimming towards the targeted fish.

Apart from using illusions to attract fish, there is the option of using live bait. The equipment is known as a live bait spinner. As much as it still does spin and emits vibrations into the water, the bait also plays a big role in attracting the fish towards the hook. It gives you a few seconds to pull out the fish as it struggles to munch up the bait.

All kinds of spinners can be used both in sports fishing or any other kind of fishing related activity. Despite from the bait spinners, there are other kinds of spinners which include; inline, flash inline, magnum double blade inline, spinner baits, magnum spinner baits double-bladed inline, , and buzz baits.
