To get the special RDR 2 Legendary Fish lures, you’re going to have to buy them in a store. The only store that sells them, as far as we know, is Bait and Tackle, a shop near Lagras, Lemoyne. We’re going to get into the minutiae of where exactly to find the store below. Either way, the Bait and Tackle sells all three types of RDR2 special lures: Lake, River, and Swamp.

Now, there are two things to keep in mind here. One, every single special lure is going to cost you $20 a pop. At least they all cost the same. Two, you can apparently hold only one of each lure in your inventory at any given time. So, make every special lure in RDR2 count. Not only are they a bit on the expensive side, but, if you fail at catching a legendary fish, back you go to Lemoyne for another special lure.
