outer bank, deep sea fishing

I'm sure there are plenty of popular streams and rivers that receive a ton of fishing pressure, but I have been lucky enough to be able to fish some streams and rivers without seeing another person in sight. Beautiful fish can be found in lakes, ponds, streams, and rivers.

It was a remarkable thing to witness, and I've used these techniques to do the same thing for the last twenty plus years. My Dad told us stories of dancing northern pike, muskies almost 6 feet long and pickeral to fill the freezer for the kitchen table, those were the days. Most people start fishing with freshwater because that is the easiest to find and the easiest to do.

The bass are lying in wait for an ambush in these logs and other structure. And if the fish smell something that doesn't seem right, that means no bites for you. A great tip is to use a longer fishing rod.

I suggest starting at a local pond or small lake with plenty of clear area on the bank. As a new person at fishing if you take the time to practice, read a few books on fishing, and understand the basic mechanics you should develop a great love for the sport.
