Artificial bait refers to synthetic lures designed to attract fish during fishing. These baits mimic the appearance, movement, and scent of natural prey, such as worms or small fish. Common types of artificial bait include plastic worms, jigs, and spinners, each serving different fishing techniques and environments. Anglers often choose artificial bait for its durability and versatility. Unlike live bait, which can spoil or require special handling, artificial options can be reused multiple times. Additionally, they come in various colors and sizes, allowing fishermen to adapt to different conditions and target specific fish species effectively.
