How To Use Your Grab and Go Light Lure Kit
How To Start Lure Fishing
How to rig up a soft plastic on a jig head.
-
Lay the lure next to the jig head to see where the hook needs to exit the lure.
- Make a small 'nick' in the lure to mark the 'exit point' for the hook.
-
Push the hook through the lure (as straight as possible) and have the point, exit the lure at your marked spot!
- Push the lure all the way up to the jig head. Some people apply a small blob of superglue to fix it in place, however it's not really needed.
Light Lure Kit F.A.Q.
Q. What rod should I use with lures like these?
A. I'd advise a 1-15gm casting weight rod. My Light Lure Rod will work perfectly, however the Ultralight Lure Rod will be more enjoyable to use if targeting little perch on the very small jig heads.
Q. What line should I use?
A. I'd recommend some 13lb-18lb Daiwa J-Braid. (8 strand) This is because it's thin enough to cast small lures, and has no stretch - so you'll feel bites and connect with more fish! Thick, cheap braid makes lure fishing tricky!!
Q. I want to catch pike!
A. Please always use a metal trace, you can purchase these from most good tackle shops, or make your own. Titanium ones of about 8lb-12lb breaking strain are thin enough to not put the fish off.
