Fishing In The Winter

Fishing in winter can be a bit difficult. I do not know about you, but I found that fishing in the winter months is what we call a "challenge". I am, of course, does not refer to sitting on a frozen lake looking through a hole in the ice (ice fishing). What I'm referring to fishing is the way we do at other times of the year, just a big difference ... temperature and amount of daylight.

What is interesting to me about fishing in the winter, is how difficult it is to catch fish. I know that in the rivers and streams I fish in Montana, fishing slows dramatically in the winter time. I have a theory on why this happens.

As the cool temperatures, so that the water temperature (obviously!) and water temperatures become colder (and remain so for a long time), fish that swim in the water to become colder as well. Fish are cold blooded and their body temperature becomes colder, their metabolism slows down, requiring them to eat less. So why fishing is so much harder in the winter.

There are some things that can be done on the top prospects in his favor though. Before we get into these things, let's discuss the room warm. Do not worry, I will not go into diatribe about the layering and heating in cold weather (you already know all that), but I'll talk to keep your hands warm. As fishermen, we have our fingers for our craft, and in winter, using our fingers, while still keeping your hands warm can be a problem. This is where the couple comes in. If you wear a glove liners by your glove, you can then remove the gloves when fishing and hands still have protection from the cold.

, because fish are less active during winter, making sure that you are fishing art the most timely way is very important. How do you go about knowing that you are fishing at the most convenient times? Simply paying attention to time and the moon. That's right, time and moon have as much to do with your failure of a successor fishing, as well as any two things. It may sound strange, but it is nevertheless true. When fishing in the winter, make sure that you have.

Fishing in winter can be a challenge, but these two simple tips will make you more successful. Oh, one more thing. Make sure you reduce your contributions as much as possible. In cold weather the fish prefer to spend as little energy as possible getting the meals, which means that small meals are fine. In winter, reduce your baits as much as you can.
