How to Throw a Cast Net

How to Throw a Cast Net: "A cast net is used as a mechanism for fishing in shallow waters. This fishing gear is an age old mechanism that has been used in several cultures of the world for many years. As is apparent from the word 'net', this technique is used to catch and trap fish with the usage of a net. Yet it's something that works best in shallow waters and for a small scale fishing expedition rather than for commercial purposes."

How to fish that little backyard (or Park) pond

How to fish that little backyard (or Park) pond: "Nearly every angler has cut his or her teeth on a little body of water near where they grew up. For some of us it was a neighborhood pond or a neighbor's farm pond, while for the more urban set it was a City park pond festooned with bread-frenzied ducks. For some it was a small creek or canal but many of the tactics presented here will apply. For the youngster, these waters hold mysterious monster fish as big as cars, though it only seems like what we caught could probably fit in a grown-up's pocket. Little did you know that large fish often can and do lurk in these little bodies of water, and even if you don't hook the pond beast, excellent fishing can be had in the little puddle sized ponds of our youth!"

World Record Sunfish (Redear) | Fishing Fury - A fishing blog with attitude!: "We don’t talk much about panfish on Fishing Fury and I’m not sure why. We have definitely been caught up in the excitement of pike and musky fishing in the last four years, but we began fishing as most did, catching little sunfish and bluegil. When finding fish in new locations is slow, I know I can fall back on catching the usually overlooked panfish."
