Artificial Baits for Salt Water
For salt-water fishing artificial baits are also used, but they do not vary so much in form. They are usually some form of spoon or an imitation of a small squid or cuttlefish and called squids.
Squids are made of block tin, bone, cedar wood (weighted) and pearl. They are used for mackerel, weakfish, bluefish, etc.
Spoon baits for use in salt-water are of large size and usually have the hooks attached to the end of the spoon. The Wilson's, Sam's and Stewart spoons are the most popular. They are used for kingfish, barracuda, bluefish, yellowtail, tarpon, sea trout, mackerel, amberjack, etc.
There are also spinning baits for mackerel and weakfish and others for striped bass. These latter are to be baited. They are mounted on double hook rigs and are shaped like the spinners made for fresh-water fish, like a triangular, deeply lobed leaf, placed upside down.
