To Reel Or Not To Reel And Don’t Let The Big One Get Away!

IMG_4169Bait fishing can be a very fun and rewarding type of fishing  even with the somtimes seemingly never ending wait for fish to bite.

A big mistake that is easy to do is reel in the line too early. Adults and kids alike even me somtimes will do this. As long as the bait is still on the hook and the cast was good there is not a reason to reel in the line early.

A good rule of thumb is leave the line in for at least 30 minutes, if all is well more time wont hurt either. But in some rare situations it’s posible to get so many bites that you need to keep replacing the bait frequently. This has happened to me a few times as well.
