GREATEST FISHING TIP, PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!

Posted On July 29, 2011
It's a known fact that practice makes perfect, and that also applies to fishing. It's great to read and watch information on fishing but to obtain results it's the time on the water that will improve the amount of fish you land.  A good example:  You see a new bait previewed in a magazine with an angler holding a monster fish.
You head to the river with this new bait thinking your gonna land some monster fish and you come up empty. Discouraged, the bait goes into your tackle box and never used again. Instead go to the river with the intent of practicing with this bait and taking the time to learn the proper retrieve and technique. If you don't catch any fish, take it out again in a different area and practice again. Practicing will help increase your confidence in fishing and that can go a long way.



Do whatever it takes to get out to the river and practice.








Practice fishing many species,  the more the better.

















The more your line is in the water the better you will be. If you ever get a chance to practice with a pro or tournament angler, do it. It's the best practice you will ever have.





talk to a pro about practicing.





























At the end of the day or at the 4:00pm weigh in, it's not about what you know, it's the quantity and quality of the fish that tell the story.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!!!

FALL PIKE, GATORS GONE WILD!!!!

The Fall Pike bite has been good lately.  This past weekend I was out fishing Bass and  I had Pike bite my lure off more than a few times. I was using a Senko for Bass, but the pike were more into it, The Pike are into anything right now.  Tonight was a perfect night to go out and get some redemption. The weather was over cast with a cool east wind. There was brief periods of rain,

FALL FISHING

Fall fishing is officially in full swing and the count down is on, at least for us up in the North.  This time of year the fishing can be challenging  with the change of season. Fall is a great time of year , but once November starts to creep up and the temperatures begin to plummet it can make for a really tough day on the water.  To be honest in my neck of the woods, once

2011 BERKLEY B1, DAY TWO

Day two of the 2011 Berkley B1 was awesome. The top ten all had twenty pounds or more going into today. Could the anglers duplicate day one and deliver more Lake St. Francis monsters.
