Freshwater Fishing Tips

Freshwater Fishing Tips

Fishing is a fun sport that requires some skill and timing. Depending on where you fish, your tactics will be different. Brackish or colder water may call for a certain style of fishing, while calm fresh water might need a different style. Regardless of the type of fish or water, there are some freshwater fishing tips that everyone should follow.

For lake and river fishing, go where the water turns from shallow to deep. Fish like to congregate and look for food in this area.
Shiny fishing lures can attract certain fish, but the reflection of the sun can blind them and cause confusion.
Use a matted metal fishing lure instead if possible, to avoid too much reflection.
Cast close to the shoreline for more bites.
Look for mossy areas, as fish prefer to swim in these areas to forage for food.
A lot of people use worms as bait, but locusts are also a great choice. Larger fish like bass really enjoy these insects.
Check the local fishing reports that day for updates on areas where they're biting.
Sunrise is an excellent time to fish, try to go out early in the morning.
Pay close attention to the movement of your line. Learn how to understand the difference between a curious fish and one that is biting so you can hook and reel it in.
Research the region you will be fishing in to find out what kinds of fish live there and the things they like.
Be patient. Patience really is the key to good fishing. Bring a book or radio if you plan to out for a long time and remember that all good things come to those who wait.
