5 Beginner Fishing Mistakes
Here are 5 beginner fishing mistakes:
- Not doing your research. Before you head out to fish, it’s important to do some research on the species of fish you’re hoping to catch, the best bait and lures to use, and the best time of day to fish. This will help you increase your chances of success.
- Using the wrong equipment. If you’re just starting out, it’s tempting to use the cheapest equipment you can find. However, this can actually lead to more frustration than success. Investing in some good quality gear will make your fishing experience more enjoyable and productive.
- Not paying attention to the weather. The weather can have a big impact on fishing, so it’s important to pay attention to the forecast before you head out. If it’s too windy or too cold, the fish may not be biting.
- Not being patient. Fishing can be a waiting game, so it’s important to be patient. If you get discouraged after a few minutes without a bite, you’re more likely to give up.
- Not having fun. Fishing is supposed to be enjoyable, so don’t forget to have fun! If you’re not having fun, you’re less likely to stick with it.
Here are some tips to avoid these mistakes:
- Do your research. Talk to experienced fishermen, read books and articles, and watch online videos.
- Invest in good quality gear. This doesn’t mean you have to spend a fortune, but you should get gear that’s well-made and durable.
- Pay attention to the weather. Check the forecast before you head out and be prepared to adjust your plans if necessary.
- Be patient. Fishing can be a waiting game, so it’s important to be patient and not get discouraged if you don’t catch anything right away.
- Have fun! Fishing is supposed to be enjoyable, so don’t forget to relax and enjoy the experience.
I hope these tips help you avoid these beginner fishing mistakes and have a more successful fishing experience.

1.Buyer Guide for Kayaks Paddles
I went shopping online at 4 different online stores to find the right paddle for my kayak.
The first store I went to was REI to get more infomation about buying the right paddle for my new kayak. There are a few thing to think about shift, blade, material and price, and last length. By choosing the right paddle you can save yourself a lot energy. Here is some information from REI:
Figuring out the right size (length) of paddle is surprisingly straightforward. The wider your boat is, the longer your paddle needs to be. Your height is also a factor, especially for a narrower boat: Taller paddlers need longer paddles.

2.How to find a good kayak rental company?
I like traveling and trying new things. I have been to 20 different city this past month. I have enjoy good food, good weather, roof top bars, and the beach. I also have enjoy learning and listening to interesting people. There are different rental programs across the country at universities and colleges. I came a cross a program about the local University of North Florida (UNF), they offer “Gear Check-out & Adventure Trips.” The students can use the gear for free, for example, kayaks, canoing, and rock climbing.

Best Fishing Practices
Many anglers plan ahead and incorporate best fishing practices using tips to ensure safe and responsible angling. Thank you to fisheries.noaa.gov/national/resources-fishing/catch-and-release-best-practices or providing the following tips:.
Plan Ahead
Know your fishing regulations and have the necessary equipment ready to release fish that you do not plan to keep.
Avoidance
Develop fishing skills to target the size and species you desire. Change location, depth, or bait to avoid catching fish you do not intend to keep.
Appropriate Gear
Use appropriately sized gear that is targeted to the species you desire to catch. Use circle hooks when planning to release fish and where they are required.
Landing Fish
Do not play the fish to exhaustion. Use line strong enough to minimize playing time. Land the fish quickly and if possible, release them while still in the water.
Handling Fish
Use knotless, rubberized landing nets and rubberized gloves to avoid removing the slime layer from the fish’s body. Keep the fish horizontal and support the body. Avoid dropping the fish, especially onto hard surfaces. Use release tools, such as dehookers and recompression tools, to minimize handling. Release fish as soon as practical and do not keep them out of the water longer than necessary.
