The Top Fishing BassTips, Pointers And Techniques No matter what type of bass fishing you’d like to do, you won’t be any good at it until you know what you’re doing. Fortunately and despite popular belief, fishing is not that difficult a sport to tackle. Read on for the best tips on fishing, and you’ll be on your way to becoming a great fisherman.

Some fishermen do not know that the larger the number of the hook is, the smaller the hook size. This is helpful prior to your fishing expedition when buying your tackle. You have to consider the right size hook for the fish you intend to catch. If the hook is too big, you might miss out on a great catch, if it is too small, your fish might get off the hook easily. Polar Opposites Late last week I spent a couple of days on Lake Erie with my friend, Hawg Head. We had our annual deep water bladebait contest. We had a ball catching smallies and playing around. It wasn’t as good as most years, however. The hurricane muddied the water and messed up our fishing. I’m not complaining, though. Given what the people of New Jersey and New York are going through a few less fish means nothing, and I do mean nothing. At least we had our homes and our worldly possessions. I can’t imagine what it must be like for some of them up there. The before and after pictures will break your heart.

If you go fishing by yourself, always let someone know exactly where you plan to fish and what time you plan to return from your trip. Follow the schedule and return on time, or check in by phone if you plan to stay later. This can prevent unnecessary worry on behalf of your loved ones.

You should learn the way water temperature affects the movement of fish. Generally speaking, fish will swim deeper when the water is cold. During seasons when the temperature fluctuates during the day (fall & spring), fish will rise as the temperature does. Adjust your casting as the day warms up and aim shallower. Cut the fish line! If a fish you’d like to release has swallowed its hook, you can still get it safely back in the water. Simply cut the line as close to the fish’s mouth as you can, then release it has normal. The stomach acid of a fish is powerful, and will be able to dissolve the hook.
