When it comes to fishing, it seems that we anglers can never get enough information. You know the old saying, right? Fishing tips are like a-holes, everybody’s got one! While this is certainly true, the key is in finding quality fishing tips. Quality fishing tips come from one simple thing. Experience. There’s simply no substitute for spending time on the water practicing the art of fishing, which is what I’ve been doing for the past twenty years. Not only that, but these 3 fishing tips to catch more fish weren’t born from my experience alone. They also come from my lifelong fishing partner and is father, so these 3 tips were born from more than sixty years of combined fishing experience.
All this experience and you can benefit from it by reading an article that will take five minutes of your time. Not a bad deal, in my opinion. Hey, even if you decide that these 3 fishing tips are a bunch of BS you’re only out five minutes. Worse things could happen to you today, I promise you that. In any case, what do you say we get down to business and outline the 3 tips to catch more fish?
- Pay Attention To Yourself - When I say pay attention to yourself, I'm referring to two specific areas; Your hands and your body in relation to the sun, or in other words your shadow. When it comes to your hands you want to make sure that your hands are free from any unnatural odors. Few things will cost you bites like inadvertently adding unnatural scents to your bait and/or lure. This is especially true for the live bait angler. The easy remedy for this is to grab a handful of grass or dirt and rub it into your hands before touching your bait or lure. Now for your shadow. Make sure that you aren't casting your shadow on the area that you're fishing. This is especially true for the wading river and/or stream angler.
- Pay Attention To Your Hooks - This fishing tip is incredibly important (especially to the live bait angler), yet it's often overlooked. Live bait anglers should always use gang hooks, especially when fishing with any manifestation of a worm. Gang hooks are simply a pair of small hooks tied in tandem, thus enabling worms to be presented in an outstretched and natural manner. This makes u HUGE difference in both bite rates and hook ups. The second hook helps to nab those 'short striking' fish. Paying attention to your hooks simply means using gang hooks in live bait situations.
- Pay Attention To The Weather & Moon - This is a very simple fishing tip, and definitely one that will help you catch more fish. These two forces of Mother Nature have an incredible impact on the behavior of fish, and using this information to your advantage will help you have much more fishing success. The information isn't rocket science either. You can learn the basics in about a half an hour of study, and be on your way. For example, did you know that when the moon is in certain phases you should be on the water fishing? Pay attention to the weather & moon, use the information to your advantage, and start catching more fish. It really is as simple as that.
