Are you new to fishing? Have you been getting confused with different kinds of fishing advices, various fishing methods given in books and many kinds of fishing equipments available in stores? In order to simplify the fishing matters, here are the basic fishing tips for your first time fishing adventure.

1) How to fish with bait

  • Tackle. To plunk the bait, you should purchase lead weights. Depending on the current of the environment, you should change the weight of the lead. Anglers commonly use and recommend bank sinkers with a number-two hook.

A swivel is generally needed to avoid sinkers to slide. It will act as a stop. To protect the knot, you could use plastic beads between the swivel and weight. If you use two appropriate swivels, you can actually rig the sliding sinkers.

  • Bait. The commonly used bait for all kinds of fishes is worms. Another popular bait is chicken liver. An important tip is to purchase fresh bait and keep them cold so as to avoid them from getting soft and allowing the bait to stay within your hooks.

Some of the other commonly used baits are cut-baits which include skin from fried chicken, fish entrails, grasshoppers, salmon eggs, shrimps and crayfish tails.

2) How to fish: There are three basic methods for fishing.

  • Plunking: It is the most common method used. In this method, you need to take hold of the bait in a position which is against any current. You can do this by using a suitable amount of weight. Another way of plunking allows to use minimal weight for the bait to move along with the water current.
  • Back bouncing: It is done by lifting the bait out the bottom and raising the tip of the rod for one to two feet. Allowing the bait to walk with the current, you should free the back reel or spool. Repeat the steps when the lure settles down on the bottom. Back bouncing is effective in deeper water like fishing in a boat.
  • Drift-fishing: This is an easy way of fishing in which you cast upstream or downstream. This may vary depending on the current's amount. You should count the appropriate depth and start reeling.

3) How to fish from a boat: The most important factor in fishing from boat is the location from which you would carry out your fishing. You need heavier jig heads in deep water fishing as compared to the on shore fishing.

  • With heavy weight which keeps your bait near the bottom of the water and the line straight down from your boat, you are able to drift the boat along with any current. A good technique of fishing on boats is trolling slowly with a fishing device called bottom-walker.

Do not speculate on problems. Just use these simple tips when you go for fishing. Remember, fishing is easy as long as you抮e enjoying the trip. To make your first fishing trip more memorable, bring some of your family and friends along and enjoy your time!
