The Process Of Preparing Striper Lures

By Christa Jarvis


Fishing can be rated as one of the most remarkable outdoor activities that a person can ever experience. This activity is however only fun if one is really catching the fish. To make this happen, it is important that all things related to the preparation are done correctly. For example, when the fish to be caught are stripers, one must learn how to make the striper lures. When making a lure whether for a striper or not, one should always know how to tie the best knot.

Before learning how to tie the lure, there are some requirements that must be bought like the reel and the fishing rods. An extra-long line is needed for this activity because it will give some extra slack. The first thing to do when learning this process is to tie the rope like you are tying shoes by doubling the rope over at around five inches.

The second stage is to pass the whole loop inside the lure very cautiously to prevent it from getting undone. After this is done, there must be two different units at the inside of the lure. When the second step has been completed, another above your head loop like the first one should be made. To make certain it is perfectly tight, the ends must be drawn in the opposite sides and later the extra line can be cut off.

There are various tips and warnings that must be taken into consideration when doing this task. The people doing this should first make sure they understand that the tag end is the one that will be hanging at the end of the line while the rest of the line will be hanging loosely from the rod. They can wet the knots with some saliva before tightening because this helps them stay stronger.

It is important to know that burning the ends of the knots makes them weaker; they are supposed to trim them instead. They should give themselves enough leeway on the tag that will be easier to work with. They should be very careful not to hook themselves when they are tugging on the tag line to tighten the knot.

After learning how to tie them, a person must know all the best baits to use. Shad is one of the most common bait used for stripers. It is mainly caught using nets and can be easily found at the ends or below dams. They have silver bodies with very large scales and a green back. The best shads to be used as bait are between three to four inches in terms of their sizes.

Another good type of bait for fishing is the American eel. This is an organism with a snake like body and sharp teeth. They also have very small and sharp pointed heads. They can be found in water sheds, ponds, rivers and streams among others. They are irresistible to stripers therefore good enough bait.

With all the above information then fishing should not be a hard thing to pull off. This will make the activity fun and above all successful. If the right thing is done then the number of fish caught will be so many that one will have a problem taking them all home.
