Top Freshwater Fishing Lures to Catch Bass
Freshwater fishing lures include a wide range of variety of types, colors and sizes for your discretion when fishing for trout in freshwater river streams. These lures are created to add enjoyment to fishing activities and are matched to a given situation of season, places and type of trout fish you are going to catch. Below is a brief explanation of common and effective lures for trout river fishing
Spoons. This lure is named after its shape which looks like a spoon head. Spoons are considered as the simplest lure which its simple movement of flickering and wobbling action imitating the movement of a live bait fish. This is the most suitable lure for beginners due to its simplicity and economical price.
Spinners. A spinner includes a blade that can freely move on a spindle to create a spinning or turning motion when it is retrieved from the water. The spinning movement creates a flashing effect caused by light reflection on the turning blade. This resembles the glittering fish scales and motion. It also provides the possibility to change the rotating speed of the blade by speeding up or slowing down the retrieval of the spinner.
Topwater lures. These kinds of lure are able to float on the surface of the water. Using this lure will create some excitement since you will be able to witness the trout fish taking down the lure. Providing the possibility to retrieve the lure on the water surface, top water lures are suitable choices for fishing in location with plenty of weeds.
Suspending lures. These kinds of lure provide neutral floating effect hence it will neither sink or rise. When it is placed at a certain depth it will remain at that level of depth. This makes it most suitable for chasing hidden trout close to the weed beds, rocky stones or banks.
Floating lures. Unlike the top-water lures that float on the surface, these floating lures float just beneath the water surface and is able to float to a depth of more than fifteen feet. The diving depth is determined from the fin point of view to the lure body. The smaller the angle to the lure body, the deeper it's able to dive. The movement of the floating lure is also affected by the shape and size of vane and lure body. Floating lures are considered as a "must to bring along" for all lure anglers.
Sinking lures. These are perfect lures for deep-water fishing, where you can establish a preferred depth where the trout will strike the lure. The preferred depth is established by a counting down prior to the retrieval process. The same depth can then be applied in other casts to locate the school of trout. The distance of the sunk down lure within a given time is known as the sinking rate of the lure, which suggest the depth or distance of the fish location.
Soft baits. This type of lure is made of soft rubber and comes in a wide variety of forms and shapes, with attractive marching colors and sizes. It is suitable for saltwater and freshwater fishing. Soft baits can be used on weighted jig heads applied in the same way as the jerk bait providing a plug is used.
Jerk baits. These are passive or still lures that do not move by it self but should be made alive by the angler. Motions are created by shaking or jerking the fishing rod, or any movements that make the bait look alive. As far as it can go, the jerking of the lure can imitate a wounded or injured fish which is quite tempting for the trout fish.

Do I use sinkers when using a frog lure for largemouth bass fishing?
Is it necessary to use sinkers with a power frog (a rubber frog lure made by power bait co.) lure when fishing for largemouth bass, do you want the frog to sink or float on the surface. There are plenty of frogs at the pond, and I would assume not use sinkers, although ive noticed when a frog sees me near they swim underwater and then pop back up after a certain distance.
oh yes I have a jig hook on it, duh me, thats what the little ball at the end is for, awesome!
Well, yes and no. Those "flippin'" type frogs should be used with jig hooks -- hooks with weighted heads. If you have some of them without hooks, you've probably purchased a package of the skirts or trailers only. You should have bought (or maybe you have them somewhere) the proper hooks that Berkley or PowerBait has designed the plastic for. I hope that make sense. In other words, the PowerFrog is only one part of the equation -- it's not really meant to just be hooked on an ordinary hook. That's why it's kinda funny shaped.
A jig hook will give the PowerFrog the action it was intended to have, which is a dancing, jigging motion as you retrieve or play it. So, yes, it need a sinker of sorts, but not int he way you're thinking -- don't put it on a regular hook and then add sinkers. What you should do is put it on the proper jig hook (without additional sinkers).
