These flexible artificial baits are revolutionizing the way local fishermen approach various fishing scenarios across the country\“s diverse water bodies.Indian manufacturers have started producing specialized soft plastic lures tailored to local fish species and conditions. Products like curly tail grubs, paddle tails, and worm imitations are now being crafted to match the native prey fish found in Indian rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. These locally made soft plastics often incorporate specific color patterns that mimic regional baitfish and crustaceans.
