How fishing lures work (underwater fishing lures)

Underwater fishing lure footage and how different types of fishing lures work. There are a ton of kinds of fishing lures and it's easy for a beginner to be confused with all of the options. How do fishing lures work and what are all these different baits for? Here we review many common types / categories of fishing lures and plastic baits including crankbaits, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, jigs, and more to explain how a fishing lure works. We also test their action with underwater camera video footage of how these lures work to catch fish.

This was the most helpful and informative video on lures that I have ever seen. Thank you so much for making it!

[Wakaflockaflank]

I can’t tell you how many trash videos I found before this one. Thanks for making a good one. People in the fishing community act like everyone already knows how to fish. I wasn’t raised on it

[Raduldo]

Altough I leanred all of this the hard way, through trial and error, meaning lost a lot of baits. This is definitely a good perspective to see for a begginer fisherman.

I really like the close-in underwater perspective of these various baits underwater. The slow-motion is cool too.

It's the underwater footage that's HD, clear, and easy to understand that sets this video out from all the rest. Seriously great content.

Finally someone actually explained all the different types and classes of fishing lures. Took me for ever to get a straight answer on the difference between, a crank-bait and a jerk-bait.
And you’d be surprised how fun it is to design your own inline spinners! Made some with weedless hooks that can have small swimbaits or curly-tails loaded on! 😁

I rarely ever comment on videos… This is one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen on any subject on YouTube! It is extremely clear and concise with example footage. As someone who wants to get into fishing more this helped so much. Subbed and thank you!

In case any complete newbie is wondering, the deep diving crankbaits he's using aren't going deep because he's keeping the line short and up (fixed) just for demonstration. Also, if you are just starting out, it's more important to learn strategy and reasoning (what type of lures to use, where and when to use them) than just buying fancy and pretty looking lures which are expensive. Fish will literally bite lumps of plastic, so don't worry about how real something looks to you. Save your money and if anything, build a wider arsenal of types of lures.

Had a bad fishing outing today. Didn’t catch anything and I realized I don’t know anything😂. Needed this and your doing gods work here 👍👍

Now that I am retired I am just getting back into fishing after a 40 plus year absence. Your videos are gold! Wow has fishing technology and technique changed over the last 40 or more years.

[armandorjusino]

This is one of the best informative fishing videos I have ever seen, really good info and footage, thank you fellow angler.

[MrHankHill]

No BS just straight to the point. Beautifully produced video.

[chugaaa]

Finally someone explains this in a simple and efficient way, so hard to understand all these different lures when you're starting, I really appreciate your video thanks a lot. 👊🏻

[jamesoconnor]

I saw on one of your videos that your'e a packers fan and coming from a bears fan I hope ya'll have a mediocre season. Aside from the friendly banter, thank you so much for these type of videos, they are the best learning tools I could find online and are a lot more informative than some of the other fishing content that only tries to be entertaining. I'm really trying to learn how to fish well and you are a big help in my journey.

Finally, someone who explains clearly and gets to the point. Now I see what I've been doing wrong

[goldenfew]

I just started fishing and this is the type of channel I was looking for
Thank you for the information and the time given to make these videos

[trevorroberts-oq]

This is a most useful video . Over a lifetime's fishing I have used most of these lures but I'm glad you showed us the action of these using a slow retrieve as well. Some of them look more realistic ( to me) on the slower retrieve. The jig head ones look very realistic on retrieve. If I'd seen this footage in my younger days I'd have saved some money and possibly caught many more fish. Most educational and entertaining . Thank you so very much.

[bradhite]

Thanks for sharing . You have the gift of effective teaching.

[onefsbyrg]

Thank you so much this is a really great video the best one that I've seen so far in the past 3 years showing me how these things perform underwater and great explanations too.

Hi Sport. This really is the best video I've seen on lure action. The slo-mo is exceptionally good where you can the spoon rocking side to side, and not spinning, and the spinner-blade spinning around the shaft, and not the shaft (and hook) itself. Top notch, Sir. Raymondo.
