Description

Fishing lures are artificial baits designed to attract fish. They come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, including hard plastic, soft plastic, metal, and wood, and are often designed to mimic the appearance and movement of natural prey. Lures are attached to a hook and used to entice fish to bite.
Types of Lures:

Movement:
The way a lure moves through the water, whether it’s wobbling, spinning, or twitching, can mimic the behavior of natural prey.
