It's always good idea to go lightest possible.fisho999 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 25, 2023 10:52 pmhey all,

Are you looking for lake or river lures?
I'm assuming lake.

Re: $100 worth of trout lures
Just stick with 6lb leader, dropping to 4 in lakes won't really change anything.
Not knowing what you already have a basic kit for trout and redfin in lakes would be something like.
Strike pro bob n spoon
Strike pro flatz minnow
Berkley ttail minnow
Size 1 jigheads in 1/8, 1/12 and 1/16 oz
Tasmanian devils (14g if you're rod can cast it other wise the smaller 7g)
Grab 1 or 2 of each of them and youll have a kit like that will get you onto fish most of the time

If not windy and no need to cast far, various hardbodies work too (Double clutch, rapalas, etc)

Re: $100 worth of trout lures
I haven't actually used the berkley range. They all look like they should work pretty well though, they are based on some pretty successful lures. For what you're looking at I would skip the slurp and go with the bender and the jerk if you do want to get them.
Colour is a pretty preferential thing, I normally stick to the natural side for trout with silver and gold baitfish patterns and some more natural greens. I typically have a handful of brighter colours with me but they aren't my first choice.

Re: $100 worth of trout lures
All of the suggested lures above will catch Trout / Redfin. Suggestion, research each lure, then select 4>6 that you are happy with and go and buy $50 worth. If they all work for you repeat. If not select and buy some others.
