How to fish like a pro?

If you want to learn to master the art of fishing, perhaps you think that to begin to practice fishing must be a very complicated activity, but not at all. Besides being a sport suitable for all ages, it can be practiced in family, with friends or alone. There are no magic recipes to be a good fisherman, or to get started in this spectacular sport, but there are essential keys: willingness to learn and teach, patience, humility, commitment and observation.

Here are some good fishing tips to improve your fishing skills:

Do not limit yourself to only one fishing technique

We always have preferences when it comes to choosing the type of fishing to practice, but if you only practice one you will not evolve and learn new things. Try rivers, reservoirs, boats, banks... little by little your mind will open up as an all-terrain angler.

Be constant and never give up

As in all sports, you have to be constant to gain experience and become a professional fisherman.

Be careful on how you present your baits and hooks

You have to offer the fish an attractive bite so that their craving for food makes them take the bait. Many times you will notice how by changing the bait you will achieve much more catches with the same conditions.

Always try to go fishing with friends

Going with friends will liven up your fishing trips and, most importantly, will give you an important sense of security knowing that, in case of emergency, you will always have someone to help you.

Use good fishing tackle

Large doses of patience

The gift of patience is especially relevant in fishing activities because it is normal to spend 2 or 3 hours waiting to get a measly catch, or wait hours for a fish to bite. Even worse, sometimes you will spend long days fishing without getting any results. Friends, do not despair, patience is a gift that you have to cultivate from the first moment you grab a fishing rod, and really in the end he who follows it gets it!

Be a good observer

Be precise in time and form and look for that right moment when a fish bites your bait, think about the best place to fish, as well as the day, the hour. As with your fishing equipment, it is not necessary to spend thousands of dollars on it, but choose the most suitable for your activity.

Adapt your lures

Don't settle for just any lure, use those that really fool the fish and select them according to the species and season in which you go fishing, listen to the experiences of your colleagues and try using your favorite lures.

Take fishing as a hobby.

This advice is somewhat more subjective and each angler will interpret it in a different way. Our recommendation is that you enjoy it first and foremost because fishing brings great moments that are hard to forget, something that will not be 100% if you are only obsessed with catching more and more fish. Relax and enjoy fishing and the bites will come by themselves.

Go fishing whenever you can and whenever you feel like it.

One thing is to take weather factors into account and another thing is to let them affect your fishing trips and stop going out fishing. Rather than staying at home lamenting the bad weather, go outside (as long as it doesn't pose a real danger) and fight the wind and tide. This will also help improve your technique as a fisherman.

Don't believe everything they say about catching fish.

Everyone has their own method and the results will obviously not be the same. There are so many factors that come into play, we know that comparisons are odious. It's better to put them aside.
