You can find many different variations in the types of trout fishing lures used for catching trout. Fishermen are very protective of their lures. Once they find a lure and technique that works for them, it is next to impossible to get them to use anything else. I heard many a fishermen swear by a particular lure, yet when others tried it, they did not have the same success. It does not mean that the fisherman lied; it means that the user was not skilled in the proper technique. Lure techniques are unique to every fisherman. Don’t be discouraged if a lure works for someone else and not for you. All it means is you have not found a lure you are comfortable using. Comfort and skill comes with time.
