What are the best types of fishing lures to use?
Smallmouth Bass: spinners, top water lures, jigs with twister tails. Walleye: 3/8-ounce jigs with twister tails, crank bait, jig and a minnow. Northern: spoons, bucktails, shad raps, trolling lures Trout: ultralite lures, ultralite spoons, 3 way swivels. On the Berens River we suggest lead heads with twister tails, spoons, spinners or crank bait. The walleye and northern will bite on all of these lures. There is no live bait used on the Berens River.
