>>924224>How much is fishing using those fancy baits and lures more effective than "survival" fishing?Not much. Targeting specific species will require a variety of baits. Lures and flies are just more durable versions. If you want to catch fish cheaply, use live bait/cut bait where allowed. Catch baitfish to use to catch larger predator fish. All that takes is a rod, line, bare hook, and initial live bait for the baitfish.
