6 Best Lures to Catch King Mackerel. Lures trolled or cast into the strike zone near feeding fish are seldom refused. Rig with a wire leader and run off a rod with light line (such as 40-pound braid) to maximize diving depth. The 18-inch long natural pattern is the most realistic, but other colors may pop better in cloudy water. Troll this one at 2 to 6 knots for the best action. The flash and action of a #3.5 spoon trailing behind a weighted Sea Striker planer is too tempting to resist. The diving characteristics of the planer pulls the spoon into the prime strike zone without adding unnecessary tension on the rod. Best Fishing Lures Trolled plain or in combination with a dead bait, this vinyl-and-feather lure adds a splash of color and increases visibility. For the best of both real and fake, slip one of these vinyl skirts on the leader ahead of a strip bait, cigar minnow or ballyhoo. As an alternative, the C&H Sea Witch, available in different weights and color patterns, uses nylon strands for the same life-like action.
