Different Types of Fishing Bait

There are so many unique species of fish out there, so a fisherman must adapt to the characteristics of his prey. For instance, the best time to go after walleye is during the spring and fall seasons because this type of fish likes prolonged low light conditions. Try bait like a Berkley Gulp! Fake Minnow, which has the added benefit of extra scent dispersion.

A fish species like largemouth bass, on the other hand, are often found hanging out in weedy shorelines, among lilly pads and other cool areas of the lake. As such, they are known to bite certain types of fake worms, like PowerBait Worms and frog lures like this Lunkerhunt Lunker.

Those fishing trout, grayling or salmon get outfitted for an upcoming fly fishing trip at L&M Fleet Supply, where you’ll find all you need for a successful day on the stream, from fly jigs to scale boards to waders and more.
