Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned angler, this episode is packed with practical tips, tricks, and hacks to elevate your fishing game.

In this episode, we cover essential techniques for straightening your soft plastic lures, ensuring they swim naturally and attract more fish. We'll discuss the importance of proper rigging and how to repair damaged lures using simple household items like super glue and a cigarette lighter. Learn how to store your lures correctly to prevent them from becoming misshapen and discover the benefits of using tungsten putty to adjust the weight of your lures for optimal performance.

We also explore how to customise your lures for better action, including tips on creating a weedless presentation with extra wide gape worm hooks and enhancing hook exposure by cutting a slot in the underside of your lures. These simple modifications can make a significant difference in your hook-up rates and overall fishing success.

Don't forget to check out our Soft Plastic Lures Bootcamp, where we dive even deeper into these topics and much more. This 12-week course includes live webinars, guest speakers, and a wealth of information on soft plastic fishing. Whether you're targeting bream, snapper, barramundi, or any other species, our bootcamp will provide you with the skills and knowledge to fish more effectively with soft plastics.
