Episode 604: The Myths Of Lure Vs Bait Fishing With Greg Vinall

There seems to be a growing snobbery around the topic of lure fishing vs bait fishing. Yep, I gravitate toward lure fishing, but surely there is room for both. I'm not sure exactly why that is, but some of the commentary would suggest that elements of the lure fishing fraternity see bait fishing as being an "easy" way to catch fish. And by inference, lure fishing must therefore require more skill and those who catch fish on lures must be better anglers. I'd argue that bait fishing is easier for beginners to get results, and perhaps there is a greater possibility of "fluking" the occassional trophy fish on bait than on lures (maybe). But in many ways it's easier to catch larger numbers of fish on lures and often better quality fish, too. So when the question comes up "why would you fish with lures when you could catch more fish with bait?" I guess the answer has to be "the same reason you fish with bait when you could catch more fish on lures! _________________ If you're not having the success you'd like on lures, maybe it's time to get involved with Team Doc Lures?
