We’ve created this list to share experts’ best tips for beginner fishers. This is taking years’ worth of experience and condensing it down to a concise list of tips that can teach you everything you need to know.
Our hope is that with this information you can get out there fishing in no time and feel confident that you are doing everything just right.
BE PREPARED
The most important tip I can give anyone is to be prepared for anything when going fishing. The more prepared you are, the better chance you have of being a successful fisherman.
LEARN HOW TO CAST
Learn how to cast a spinning rod and a bait caster accurately – most times you’ll need to put the bait within a few feet of the strike zone where a poor casting results in missed opportunities and also lost lures.
When using plastic baits like worms, Senko’s, or craws, don’t jerk – I see this happen all the time, beginning anglers have a hard time distinguishing between a bite and a snag resulting in the bait moved from the strike zone.
The best way to determine a bite is to hold the rod steady with a little tension and see if there is a pulsation, if so then jerk. When using plastics bass will usually hold on to the bait for a couple of seconds – enough time to figure if it’s a fish or a snag.
CONFIDENCE IS KEY
My best tip for beginners is in regards to confidence. You should always have 200% confidence in what you throwing, confidence is key to helping someone successfully fish a new bait. Always think, this next cast I am going to catch that 5-pounder!
USE THE RIGHT BAIT
Be aware of what fish you are trying to catch and what kind of bait attracts them. Catfish, for example, respond to the raw chicken liver while bream fish like insects like crickets. The wrong bait could mean a very long unfruitful day, not the way you want to start when embarking on this beautiful endeavor!
TRUST THE LOCALS
Always ask locals what is biting and what type of bait to use and keep your lines tight.
