INDIANA – With so many fishing lures on the market, finding the perfect ones for your fishing adventures can be challenging.
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources shared these simple and effective fishing lures to pack in your tackle box.
Hook and bobber: The most straightforward way to fish involves a hook and bobber—all you have to do is cast, sit back, and wait.
Inline spinners: Inline spinners come in various sizes and can be great for panfish, bass, and musky. They are often used for trout fishing. To fish an inline spinner, cast the lure, let it sink, slowly reel it in, and wait for a fish to bite.
Jig head and plastic: Jig heads and plastics can catch hybrid bass, bluegill, largemouth bass, crappie, walleye, and more fish species. Fish a jig head by casting and retrieving or jigging.
Hollow body frogs: Hollow body frogs work well when fishing in lakes with heavy vegetation because they sit on top of water. They can be used to catch largemouth bass. Cast the frog out and twitch your rod while slowly reeling it in.
Crankbait: Crankbaits can fish in various depths and work well for walleye, hybrid bass, largemouth bass, musky, and smallmouth bass. Cast the lure and reel it in.
