Sizing Your Artificials

      When fishing artificials, match the size of the bait the fish are feeding on with your lure size. If they are feeding on large baits use large lures, small baits use small lures.

      After a full moon use smaller jigs or lures. The fish have been feeding all night and they aren't going to want large bait. Consider the size breakfast you would eat if you had been eating all night.

      And remember, always use a loop knot.
