Gillies FAQs

What is the best lure for Australian fishing?

The simple answer to what the best lure is for Australian fishing is that it completely depends on where and what you are fishing for, there is no objective fishing lure that will catch every type of fish each and every time. In freshwater, crankbaits, spinners and spoons will work great, whereas in saltwater you will have better luck with artificial lures to mimic certain prey.

Is lure fishing better than bait?

In general, using lures instead of bait will typically lead to increased catches and decreased chances of catching the wrong fish. If you are into catch-and-release fishing, then using lures over bait has been proven to reduce deep hooking which results in longer survival rates of caught fish.

What colour of lure fish is best?

When it comes to what the best colour of lure is, your typical main colours will be either gold or silver. These are basic colours that will work well in pretty much all scenarios, with gold being better on darker overcast days and silver being better when fishing on bright and sunny days.

Why can't I catch fish on lures?

There can be many reasons as to why you aren't catching any fish when using fishing lures. The most common reason is that you are simply not using the right type of fishing lure. Other reasons can include the area you are fishing in, the type of fish you are hunting and if you are going at the right time. The best thing to remember is that 90% of the fish are in 10% of the water, so if the fish aren't biting, change where you are fishing.
