People who have been fishing for a long time often think there isn't anything left to learn. From a different perspective, if you have not yet fished, you may feel like you don't know anything. The reality is that both beginners and pros can always find out something new about fishing, and here are some new fishing tips for you to learn.

Rig

To optimize your fishing experience, make sure that your crappie rods and reel are appropriate for the type of fish you intend to catch. Spinner rig or jig and minnow setups could be better for catching walleye, but not so effective on other fish.

Never lose your fillet knife again by tying a bobber to it. It is certain to happen sometime. If you keep fishing, you'll eventually drop a fillet knife on accident into the water. You can rig it so it will float, and then you won't ever need to lose it if that happens. Simply lace a length of rawhide through the knife handle hole. Tie a rubber cork or a bobber onto the lace so your knife will not sink.

Wheel

Most fishermen depend on just a few reels to get them through each season; but they probably own many lures. Be cautious about how you store your reels to extend their lifespan. Always release the star wheel tension when you're not utilizing the reel, and be sure to clean the line as you reel it in at the end of your day.

Crappie

Since having just the right bait is vital to catching more fish, here is an easy method to tell if you're seeing black or white crappie. White crappie have six pricks in their dorsal fin while black crappie have seven or eight. White crappie also have a tendency to have bands across their body while black crappie have a speckled pattern.

Beginners often enjoy spinnerbaits because they're easy to utilize, and many fish seem attracted to them. Water that is dimly lit, such as the murky shallows around a dock or the shaded water under tree branches, is particularly well suited to these lures. Spinnerbait is typically used to draw in bass, but it could also lure crappie.

Bass

While studying how to fish, get in the practice of observing your environment. You can begin to notice correlations between environmental elements, and the luck you have with catching fish. For instance, if you hear frogs, there may be bass close by. Look for clues in the weather systems, sights, and sounds around you.

For beginners who need to try something else beside earthworms, spinnerbait is the simplest way to go. These lures work well for fishing in shady areas, when in cover, or in the dingy shallow water by a dock. The fish most connected with spinnerbait is the bass, but crappie will bite on it too.

Whether you're a newb or an expert is not important. What ever your experience level, fishing is delightful. Using these tips can make your dedication to fishing even stronger and more successful.
