fishing tips Archives | Up North Explorer: "There is a 100 percent chance you won’t catch a fish that isn’t there. Yet it’s amazing how much time anglers spend on spots that simply don’t have any finny critters around.

We fished small water as children and those memories can be as wonderful as the ones we've created on any lake we might fish today. Tanks, small lakes or ponds were the places that we explored in our youth, the places where we learned about nature - the real birds and bees from a kid's perspective. If we didn't catch any fish, we'd fish for crawfish or just play by the side of, or in, the water. There were lots of things to see and do there."

Bobber and Jig Fishing for Winter Steelhead: Tips, Techniques & How To | Riptidefish: "Fishing with a float and jig has become one of the most popular methods for catching Winter Steelhead.

And while some really do consider this a beginners technique, most expert anglers realize the effectiveness and are float fishing converts as well. While fishing with a float (or bobber) is often identified with lake fishing for smaller trout or panfish, we clever river fishers have infused that simple buoyant apparatus into our world of salmon and steelhead fishing."

If daylight hours are the only time you’re wetting a line, you’re missing some prime angling action. It’s not for everyone, but after-dark efforts can reap huge rewards for fishermen who adjust their schedules, tweak their methods, and rig their boats for night fishing. A side benefit of night fishing is the peace and quiet it offers on waters that may be crowded with other boaters while the sun is up."

How to Throw a Cast Net: 12 Steps - wikiHow

How to Throw a Cast Net: 12 Steps - wikiHow: "All consistently successful fishermen will have one thing in common: they know the indigenous species of baitfish. The only problem is that baitfish are generally expensive — at least the solid kind that fish really feed on. About the time you realize you should have gotten some baitfish, it's often too late into your trip to set a trap or head back to the baitshop to fork over the cash. The one good way with instant results is to throw a cast net. Few things seem more difficult than throwing one correctly, but with a little practice, you will be a pro at it and the first thing you do before any outing is to throw a cast net and have a backup bucket of baitfish to show for it. To throw a cast net as a left-hander, simply reverse the direction of the hands."

Thread: Surf Fishing tips — www.thebassbarn.com — Readability

Thread: Surf Fishing tips — www.thebassbarn.com — Readability: "With the wind howling, and some work that had to be finished, I haven't been fishing for a few days. For me, at this time of year, that is kind of strange. So I have been tidying up my gear and thought I would start a thread about some tricks of the trade, so to speak. I have said it before and will say it again. If Thomas Edison was an angler, I am sure he plied his trade from the sand. Surf anglers are the most innovative of the species. I'll start it off with a couple but I am more interested to see what some of you guys/gals have come up with. Always ready to learn."
