Wooden Fishing Lures

Wooden fishing lures are used by fishermen who are interested in using tackle that closely resembles an actual fish. These lures are typically carved and painted by hand, which makes them very popular for collectors as well. Some freshwater fishing lures are also created using wood since it withstands the water quite well. The lures are usually painted to resemble smaller fish that are prey for many popular fish, such as salmon and tuna. Fishermen benefit from using wooden lures because the color scheme attracts more fish than lures made from other materials, such as plastic or rubber.
