What is spin Fishing?
The word spin always misguides most people. What makes it worse is the addition of the phrase “fishing”. Images of a person standing at the bank of a river holding fishing cast or pole go through their minds. They perceive that spin fishing is a type of fishing where you repeatedly cast a lure until you catch a fish. To put the records clear, the spin part of the name comes from the gear that is being used, a spinning reel. A reel is one of the most typical fishing tools available. It’s also one of the most effortless tools to use.
Spin fishing is a type of fishing that can be done anywhere. It’s not like Ice fishing which requires ice. This type of fishing is fun and can be enjoyed by individuals of all ages. Apart from being popular, it’s also straightforward to learn how to spin fish. All types of fishing require that you carry a gear that you will deploy in the exercise. Spin fishing requires a valid fishing license, lures, sunglasses (optional) and a fishing pole with a reel.
Research before selecting your lures and rods. There are specific types of lures and rods to be used depending on the type of species you want to get.
Trolling
This is more like Jon Boat fishing. You park your boat and set the rods in the colored lake waters. As the boats swiftly rock back and forth you enjoy the scenery of the park holding your rod tight and remaining patient. Suddenly you notice the tip of your rod diving in and up. You hurriedly but patiently pull the rod out of the holster and notice something tugging on the line. Luckily you realize you have a fish. This is what you call jackpot!
Trolling is an active type of fishing. It entails a lot of attention, correct gear, and effort. Trolling is more intense than the other types of fishing. However, it’s rewarding and exciting. Trolling is usually conducted from a canoe, boat or any other type of water equipment such as a belly boat or a kayak. When doing trolling, a lure or an artificial fly is dragged across the water. It’s always behind the watercraft. The boat travels at varying speeds and depths. The speed or depth used to troll depends on the species of fish on the list.
Before making your trip to the park ensure you consult with the park authority first. Some types of boats are not allowed in the waterways of the park. Gear for trolling is advanced compared to others. You need a trolling motor, valid fishing license, a boat or any watercraft, a fishing net, a proper fishing rod and lure, a fish finder (optional), a downrigger (optional) and a pair of needle-nose pliers for removing the hooks from the fish.
Jigging
This is an easy, exciting and fun type of fishing. The type of fishing is famous across the world. The name for this type of fishing was derived from the equipment used to fish. A hook that is weighted with an artificial lure is what is referred to as a jig. Jigging is mostly enjoyed by senior citizens, small children and everyone interested. Jigging type of fishing can be implemented on all types of fish, name it: bass, bluegill, salmon, etc.
Like the name of fishing suggests, a little bit of dancing is required. However, the dance is done on the lure’s end. After the bait is attached to the rod, it is cast in the water and then retrieved using the jigging method. This type of fishing is more involving than pier fishing. Typically, jigs are not cast in the water like normal fishing is done. Jigging, the jig is dropped in the water just below the fishing spot. You ensure the jig reaches the required depth. Once the jig is in the water, its danced and bounced up and down while holding onto the rod lift, then the lure is dropped. The motion of bouncing and dancing the jig is calculated. It should be well controlled and rhythmic. This is only achieved if the rod is held in both hands.
