Tackle Profiles

Lure & spin profiles

Select Lure Rod as the tackle type when creating a profile for lure or spin fishing — this replaces the rig-specific fields with lure-specific ones.

Lure Rod fields

Rod & Reel

  • Rod brand / model and Reel brand / model — same as standard rod profiles
  • Test curve and Rod length — as standard

Leader / Trace

  • Leader type — Fluorocarbon, Wire Trace, Mono, Braid
  • Leader length — in inches
  • Leader strength — breaking strain in lb

Lure

  • Hook type — the hook style on the lure (Treble, Single, etc.)
  • Bait / lure name — the specific lure being used

Advanced

  • Retrieve style — Steady, Stop-Start, Twitch, Rip & Pause, Drop-Shot, Surface

Note: Hook size, hook length, and hook link strength are not shown for Lure Rod profiles, as these are part of the lure itself rather than a separate rig component.
