Lures and baits that work

Spoon Spoon Cast out and retrieve at a steady pace so the spoon flashes and wobbles. Vary the speed and let it flutter down between turns.
Fly Fly Present the fly on a fly line, dry on top or wet below. Mend the line, stay in contact and strike on the light take.
Crankbait Crankbait Retrieve so the plug dives and wobbles. Add pauses and twitches to trigger strikes, or troll it behind the boat.
