There is a saying that 10% of the fishers out there catch 90% of the fish. One of the reasons for this is that many of us out there just simply do not know what to look for when we go fishing.

Finding a place for fishing is the most important of all. All beaches are different. Some are just flat shallow sandy bottoms and in most cases they have very little to offer the fisherman. Others may look as though they are flat and lifeless but have a drop off just off the shore (a gutter) and this is a good attractant for fish. If you don’t know whether you are in a good fishing place, you can check your surroundings. For example, if you see other people catching fish or have caught some, then it might be a good place to fish.

However, remember patience is very important while fishing. Being quiet is nearly as important as being patient. Noise can scare fish away or make them stop eating the bait(魚餌). Conversation is OK, but jumping or running is not.

Fish may hit the bait, so it’s difficult for you to judge if they eat it. If you see the bobber(浮標(biāo)) go under the water, it usually means the fish has taken the bait in its mouth. Then it is time for you to pull your pole out of water quickly.
