Game Fishing Lure Skirts

Ensure the replacement skirt is the same size as the original. Using a skirt that is too large or too small can affect the lure"s action and effectiveness. Each product page lists compatible head sizes for our lure skirts, making replacing or customising your lures easy.

Consider the target species, as different fish have varying preferences. Billfish and tuna, for example, are often drawn to skirts that create a commotion and "pop" on the surface, attracting them from afar. In contrast, some bottom dwellers might respond better to more subtle movements.

Bright colours are generally more effective on bright days, while dark colours work better in low-light conditions. In murky water, darker colours with UV additives can penetrate better and offer some added attraction.

Many anglers create their own colour combinations using a top (outer) skirt and a bottom (inner) skirt. If you"ve had success with certain colours or styles in the past, consider sticking with what works for you. Otherwise, don't be afraid to experiment with different colours and styles to see what works best for your target species and fishing conditions.

Extensive tears, loss of colour vibrancy, or a significant reduction in flexibility are signs that a skirt needs to be replaced. Damaged game fishing lure skirts can hinder action and may even detach during trolling.

Cleaning your lure skirts is essential after a day on the water, especially in saltwater environments. Rinse them with fresh water to remove any salt or debris that can accumulate. Use a mild soap solution for stubborn grime, followed by a thorough freshwater rinse. Allow the skirts to dry completely before storing them.
