There are different types of lures available in the market. Which lure you want to use will depend on the fish you want to catch. For example, sinking lures are great for catching large freshwater fish.
Detecting a fish bite requires a measure of skill and some practice, which makes it hard for beginners to discern when a fish has bitten onto a fishing line. Wind can make it more challenging, so it's best to fish in calm water.
Give the fish enough time to get a good bite from the bait and the opportunity to swim away. When it does so, you’ll feel a tug on the line, and that is when you should pull the line upwards.
After feeling the tug of a retreating fish, you need to snap up the rod in order to set the hook in the mouth of the fish. Be careful that you don’t use too much force as it might tear the mouth of the caught fish.
