Fishing Lures – Expert Tips
Fishing lures are the core of spinning, LRF, jigging and many other methods. With realistic action and durability, they perfectly imitate prey and trigger strikes. At Tactical Aqua we offer a wide range of lures from top brands like Savage Gear, Daiwa, Rapala, Shinka and Raglou, covering every technique and condition.
TL;DR – At a Glance
- Minnows: Classic hard lures for sea bass, barracuda and bonito.
- Poppers & Surface: For explosive topwater strikes.
- Soft Baits – Silicone Lures: flexible and realistic, ideal for LRF.
- Jigs & Metals: Perfect for shore jigging and deep water predators.
How to Choose the Right Lure
Choice depends on species and environment. For small coastal fish, soft baits paired with LRF rods are deadly. For larger predators like sea bass or barracuda, minnows from Rapala and Daiwa excel. In deep waters, Savage Gear jigs are trusted, while Raglou is iconic for trolling and surface fishing.
Pairing with Equipment
Lures need the right rod and reel. Small soft baits work best with fine braids and sensitive tips, while larger minnows demand stronger allround reels. The correct setup brings lures to life and increases catch rates.
