Rapala Fishing Lures

Test Your Knowledge about Rapala Fishing Lures take a short informative Quiz at My Lens Click Here



Rapala lures are one of the most realistic looking lures you can buy. An ingenious fisherman created
the first Rapala lures in the 1930s. After observing the habits of fish in the waters of Finland, he
realized that big fish eat wounded little fish. He created a lure that wiggled and wobbled in the water
and he started catching more and more fish. And to this very day all Rapala lures that are made are
hand tuned and water tested to make absolutely certain that they swim in perfect harmony right out of
the box. Actually, no lure holds more records for the biggest fish caught than Rapala lures. These
lures are made of Balsa wood; Balsa trees are found primarily in Central and South America. Read More at My Website

Fishing tips, Survival Skills

Why do Anglers Need survival skills?

Anglers are special a breed of men and women that will go to far off remote locations to search for that once in a lifetime catch. You could end up on a mountain top along a stream that no one knows exist or you could be off shore chasing that salt water catch of a lifetime. Maybe you will be in a country that is foreign to yours, with different cultures or languages you are not custom too. Anglers prepare for the hunt by learning all they can learn about the particular fish they are going after, Anglers prepare for there quest by purchasing the very best in gear and fishing tackle.

But here is a question for you the Angler. Are you prepared to survive a sudden storm when you are alone and out in the middle of no where? If you encounter a Natural Disaster have you got the knowledge to prevail against nature? If you should injure yourself while angeling do you know how to take care of yourself until you can get the attention you need without going into a panic? And finally what if you were to get lost and night time came along and the skys would not reveal the stars too you due to clouds. Are you truly prepared for any occasion.

I hope that this little post has jarred the thought process for those Anglers that have not thought of all the possibilities. You have to be prepared for anything if you want your trip to be a Fabulous Memory. Not a disaster that makes it your last.

I have just found a Book online “Ultimate Survival: Secrets to Staying Alive… Anywhere… Anytime!” that has the answers to these Questions and more there is a link were you can purchase your copy at my website FISHING-BUDDIES.INFO or just pop over to my site and explore the tips and video's on fishing.

Fishing Tip, Dont do this

I went fishing last weekend, had a great time with my new ugly stick that is one cool little fishing rod. But here is the thing. You know when you have been working all week and then you go fishing on Sunday you are really tired when you get home and you
don't want to do anything but rest. Well here is something you don't want to do and that is leave the dang stink bait and liver in the trunk of the car at about 100 degrees.

Fishing tip, How to Fillet a Trout video

I am a visual Learner so I dug up this video at You Tube on Filleting Trout so that I could watch it and felt compelled to share it with any one that reads my blog.

Fishing Tip, Defining Wet versus Dry fly

A wet fly is designed to be fished below the water surface and resemble any Number of Dead insects that have gotten wet and are floating down stream.

A dry fly is designed to float on top of the water and is best when it resembles the current
hatch of insects that is on the river.

Therefore wet fly fishing is becoming more and more popular due to the fact that it is not such an
exact science, even placement of the wet fly to the proximity of the trout is not as crucial.

Fishing Tip, Take a Day off and Go Fishing

Took a day off and went fishing Yesterday, Spent the day At Sumner Lake At Ft Sumner New Mexico. Took some good old worms and put them on a hook tied a slip sinker on with a split shot giving that worm some wiggle room about 10 " from the slip sinker. Rigged my Wifes line the same way and tossed them out into the water. Well the result was my wife started reading her book and pretty soon she was hauling in a 16" walleye. I kept trying this and that and the other thing. I pulled in a couple of little 6" bass, In the mean time I had put another worm on for my wife and she was back to reading that book and what you Know she got a strike and pulled in a 17" walleye. Great day fishing all in all I could watch my wife catch fish all day( she didn't come with a new boat though:). The moral of the story is buy yourself a good Johanna Lindsay Romance Novel ( No Choice But Seduction ) thats cheap Fishing Tackle . Get a worm on the hook and in the water and start reading when all the other fishing tips don't work.

Fishing Tip, Best Trout Bait

The Best Trout Bait is natural bait. Natural bait appeals to the Trouts keen sense of smell as well as being a visual stimulate. When fishing in dark, muddy water it is important to attract trout via smell, also cold water fishing lends well to Natural bait because the hatch of insects slows down so natural bait becomes the food of choice.

One thing to be aware of when using natural bait is the way you set it up, all that is really needed when using natural bait is a small split shot and a small hook. This lends well to angling due to the fact the fish swallows the hook and all you have to do is cut it free leaving the hook to naturally dissolving from the trout, This means you wont be tearing the mouth of the fish or injuring it in any form. Good luck fishing in the natural (put your clothes back on I meant natural fish bait) which is the BEST TROUT BAIT

Fishing tips, Fly Reel Terminology

When picking a fly reel, some fly reel terminology is useful.

Almost any fly reel will do when selecting your gear for doing some stream trout fishing, however if you hook a big trout you will probably wish you had spent a few extra bucks and a little more time looking for a good Fly reel.

Here is a little fly reel terminology for you to use when shopping for your Stream Fly fishing adventure.

Size\capacity you should have a a large enough reel to hold the line you will use plus 150 yards of Dacron 20 to 30 pound.

Type of Action. Action means the rate at which the reel retrieves line such as 1-1 in a single action reel, or 3-1 in a multiplying reel.

Type of Drive Most reel sold are direct Drive which is adequate in most cases but the will rapidly spin backwards when the trout is running and if you touch the handle the sudden stop could break the line. (that trout wins).Anti reverse reels use a clutch keeping them from spinning backwards there for creating a drag.

Material Most reels are made of stamped aluminum or graphite and are a great match for todays rods. You can get a much better reel machined from aluminum alloy, that far exceed the cost and precision of the stamped reels.

I hope fly reel terminology will be a benefit to you when you begin your shopping for your first or next Fly reel

fishing tip, top water lures

Top Water Lures

Win Free Fishing Tackle Click here

Did you know that Top Water lures are best used when water temperature climbs to around 55 degrees and above. Best time of course to use a top water bait is during prespawn when Bass are the most aggressive. Its important to remember that not all bass spawn at the same time, So you could have some luck during prespawn also.

The best method for using top water is just making sure you are irritating the bass to create a natural response from them.

During the summer months fish your top water around weed beds. Then during the fall locate the primary forage such as minnows,crawfish etc. Then let your topwater do its magic

Fishing tips , Color matters

A couple of fast tips on color matters concerning fishing lures

Did you know that green holds its color for the greatest distance under water, and red disappears faster than any other color under water

So when fishing remember that the fish can locate your green lure from a great distance, this can attract fish further away to your lure.

Red on the other hand which disappears as the viewing distance increases, could prompt a strike as it disappears from the view of the fish.

Fly fishing tip Keep an eye on the Fly

Fly fishing tip, ever have problems keeping that fly in site in dark Water. Add a spot of bright color to the top of the fly. The fish seldom see the top of the fly so you really dont have to worry about spooking the fish. A couple of ideas is to use a pantone pen or a bright piece of foam.

Finally! I got to my line wet for the first time this year. I Stopped at a great little trout pond in Santa Rosa New Mexico. I tied on a no 8 and put three salmon eggs on it with a split shot. Tossed my line in the water and in a matter of about ten minutes I got a nibble. Then a few minutes later a trout picked up the salmon eggs and ran when I set that hook my heart raced and the fight was on then I let the tip of my rod dip and the fight was over and the trout was triumphant, Oh well " A bad day fishing is always better than a good day at work any time".

The experts say that the one thing that you need to do to develop a good

casting technique is to practice as often as you can. This will lead to a

proficiency in casting that make all the difference between being a

successful fly fisher or a frustrated one.

Try practicing against a wall on the outside of your house. Just imagine

that there is a clock hanging on the wall that is at the same level as your

shoulder. Place markers, such as black electric tape, at the 11:00 and

1:00 clock positions. Practice casting against these markers for a few

minutes each day to improve your accuracy and style.
