I set up the same way but I can never catch anything. Could this be the current
Fishing is one of the most popular leisure activities worldwide. The indulgence could be taken on individually or in good company. Either ways; catch or no catch, the relaxation the exercise offers is incomparable. Fishing is done on a commercial basis too. It involves deep sea and river fishing and even shallow water or fishing in narrow inlets of the sea or creeks. When fishing is attempted individually, you need to put together a number of things, before you can actually settle down with a book or cup of coffee, waiting for the prized 'tug'.
To set up your fishing line in a river, you need to first ensure that:
-You have chosen a part of the river that is neither too shallow nor too deep. This depends upon whether you wish to fish from the shore or a boat.
- You have a stock of fresh bait. The angle worms are freely available in the market.
- Once you are in a comfortable position and the bait is hooked on, you should release the line and wait. Also, check for the current. Fish are more likely to be found at the confluence.
- You should be alert for any movement along the line and immediately 'reel in'.
It is essential to ensure that the fishing line you are using is in good condition and you can do this yourself, by oiling the little pulley that draws the line in, ensuring that the line is not too rigid and checking the hook. The hook should be at the correct angle and not at one where the fish is likely to have a feed and swim away.
