There are several lure options that can help you catch more speckled fish. Here are some of our most popular lures: Chuggers (MirrOlures), Rapala XRap Slashbait and Heddon Super Hook. These lures will imitate speckled trout's erratic movements to draw strikes from the fish.
MirrOlures
The 52M series MirrOlures baits are excellent for speckled trout fish fishing. They're similar to MirroDine suspendingbaits. This bait has a larger profile, and is intended to mimic grunts and pin fish. It is best used on grassy flats with a depth of four to eight feet. The 52M series features a "19" color pattern that's particularly effective on water that's both weedy and has plenty of vegetation. The lure will stay suspended in the strike area by a simple pause retrieve and a simple twitch. Speckled trout love this lure and will strike it with abandon.
This top water lure can also be used to target inshore predators. You can use the MirrOlures topdog for a parallel casting, within two-foot of mangrove branches. This will attract snooks, redfish and trout and can also be used to catch tarpon in tidal rivers. Popa Dog, Atop Dog, and Popa Dog are two other top water lures that work well above the water surface.
Chuggers
Chuggers are overgrown poppers. They vibrate a lot when they are twitched because of their concave, flattened head and long skirt. This makes them an excellent choice for attracting smallmouth bass, spotted bass, and schooling stripers. But chuggers are not as effective with larger predators such as pike and muskie. Here are some tips and tricks to help you catch more beautiful fish.
To start, get a weedless knife. These are great for oyster bars and seagrass beds. They are fluttering so it is important to tie them with a swivel. Slowly retrieve the lure. The most effective shadtail lures are the ones with a shad tail. Another popular topwater lure is the MirrOlure Popa Dog. This lure works best when fished in shallow water approximately 6 feet deep.
Rapala X-Rap Slashbait
Rapala's newest lure, the X-Rap, is now available. It features an integrated long cast system and irresistible sound. This bait is made with Permasteel hooks that are fastened to the body wire using stainsless steel. Large speckled trout will love its darting action and rolled tail.
The X-Rap shines no matter what fishing situation you are in, from cold fall days to clear water. Its small profile resembles a meal-sized mullet. The X-Rap sank quickly to two- to four-foot depths and is a great choice for shoreline fisherman. This bait will bring in big-meal speckled trout.
Heddon Super Hook
To catch a large trophy speckled fish, you must know how to use the appropriate lure. Speckled trout will strike frog, rat, and fish lures, so you will need to choose the right ones for your species. Spoons make excellent lures to catch these fish. They have a high contrast and can create water movement. This type of lure is very durable so it will not fade in the waters.
These lures come with brightly-colored hook bodies and realistic looking eyes. They are extremely durable and won't snap or bend like other lures. Because they can generate a lot water, they are also suitable for topwater fisherman. Because the hooks are extra sharp, you can rest assured that prey will stay where your want them to.

How To
How do I clean my fishing equipment?
There are many types of cleaning techniques that you can use to clean your fishing gear. Some of these methods are very basic while others require more advanced techniques. Use soap and water is the most popular method. You should always ensure you rinse the item thoroughly after washing it. If the item isn't washed thoroughly enough, dirt and bacteria could remain, leading to infection. Untreated, this can cause bad smells and worse infections. Drying the items thoroughly before placing them in storage is a good way to avoid this. Avoid touching the item's surface when cleaning. You risk spreading germs to objects if you touch them.
You can do many things to improve the fishing gear's quality, other than using soap and water. You may want to use different detergents or solvents, depending on the type and model of your fishing gear. Some things should not be used, though, as they may cause damage to your goods. Bleach is a common example. Bleach is known to dissolve plastic and metal, so you shouldn't ever use it to clean your fishing gear. Use warm water and a dishwashing liquid instead. You should only use dishwashing liquids made specifically for cleaning fish. Dishwashing solutions contain enzymes and chemicals that aid in the breakdown of organic materials such blood, slime, and scales. Surfactants help remove dirt and grime from surfaces. You should still consider using a stain-removal product if you are worried about stain removal. Stains are usually caused by oils and fats that remain on the surface of the gear. Applying stain removers directly on the area from which the oil or fat has come is a good way to remove it without causing any damage to the underlying material.

Some of them are meant to deal with small amounts of grease, while others are intended to handle larger quantities. You can pick the one that is most suitable for you.
