The Best and Cheapest Fishing Lures

The best and cheapest fishing lures are an exciting treasure to find. The Internet is loaded with discount prices on lures. Your local retail stores such as Cabela’s, Bass Pro Shop, Wal-Mart, Target, and K-Mart also have a selection of the best and cheapest fishing lures you will be able to pick up and exam.

I have found several excellent websites to browse. They include: http://all-in-general.com, www.tradekey.com, http://discountfishtackle.com, and www.tackleup.com to name a few. My favorite website is www.gofishin.com. They have a wide variety of tackle and lures for all your fishing needs. The following lures prices have been taken from that website.

If you are a cold-water smallmouth fisherman, the Cotton Cordell Jointed Grappler Shad by Cotton Cordell for $3.99 (retail $5.39) is excellent crank bait. This lure has a jointed body that gives the illusion of a wounded bait fish.

The Crappie Magnet 1/64 ox Chart/Silver Flash by Leland’s Lure for Trout fishing may be purchased for $1.29 (retail $2.40). This lure is the cheapest and best fishing lure that will stay within the strike zone.

Another good inexpensive Trout lure by Leland’s Lures is the Crappie Magnet Sz 1/32 oz Red/Chart. It sells on www.gofishin.com for $.99 with a retail price of $1.99. This lure also stays within the strike zone. The head is uniquely shaped for a better jig action.

Spin-A-Lure’s Jake’s Stream-A-Lure 1/8 oz White/Red DOTS is one of the cheapest and best fishing lures for all gaming fish including Trout, Bass, Crappie, Perch, etc. Purchase for $1.79 (Retail $3.19) for your stream fishing.

Bass Assassin has produced the Bass fishing bait called Shad Assassin SA 13336 3″ Salt & Pepper/Silver/Phantom for $2.99 (retail $4.59) for a 15-package item. “The unique slit in the belly allows you to fish the lure weedless”. (www.gofishin.com)

Cotton Cordell offers the Jointed Wally Driver CDJ543 ¼ oz Chart/Gold crankbait for $3.99 (Retail $5.74). It is the cheapest and best fishing lures on the market for Walleyes. This lure has a tight wiggle action that dives early. The jointed body looks like a wounded fish because of how it wiggles.

Spoons are always good for fishing Perch, Walleye, Bass and Trout. Northland produces Buck Shot Rattle Spoon #BRS3-11 1/8 oz Silver Shiner that emits “sonic vibration” (www.gofishin.com). This lure has a “holographic baitfish-image” and a “deadly buck-shot rattle” to lure the fish. When put on a snap or ball-bearing swivel, you’ll get the best results. The lure sells for $2.79 (retail $4.79).

Another excellent spoon is the Large Wabler W60EB 3″ Silver/Blue Hologram by Williamson lures sold for $3.99 (retail $6.09). The darting action keeps this spoon listed as one of the best and cheapest fishing lures available. Use this spoon if you enjoy fishing for Steelhead, Salmon, Bass, Walleye and Northern Pike.

If you enjoy fishing for Trout, Panfish, Bass and other game fish, try using the Small Fry Spinner 1/8 oz Fire Tiger by Gitzit. For $1.29 (retail $1.59) purchase this flashy revolving blade with a “Genuine hand tied hackle” for an exciting catch.

Mepp’s Aglia #3 B3 HFT ¼ oz Fire Tiger, which is a spinner, may be used to fish for large and smallmouth Bass, Salmon and Steelhead. For $3.99 (retail $4.99) this lure “produces a continuous vibration and maximum flash to attract fish.” (www.gofishin.com)
