Tackle week 2019: The top 12 new lures for fishing in Canada

Best cut bait

BAIT STRIPS

Hand-cut and cured by Halifax-based charter captain (and shark specialist) Art Gaetan and his crew, these Atlantic Ocean herring strips are the perfect salmon bait to put into Luhr-Jensen’s new teaser head (see “Best salmon & trout rig on previous page). Thanks to a potent brine, the strips are pliable, yet firm enough to stay on the hook. The brine also locks the scales in place, helping the strips stay bright, while preserving their tantalizingly fishy odour.
