I just went to Inshore Fishing trip to Delaware Inlet. It was kinda bad day for fishing because of weather. It was ok weather at 4:00am but there was thurnderstorm forcast, however, there was no thurnderstorm but start raining around 10:00am then rain got heavy. Many anglers were not catching any fish including me for long time. I usually stay in one spot, use one bait and same hook. However, I decided to change fishing spots, way to throw, distance, way to hook the bait, using different baits, and have little more patient. Result, I caught around 20 fishes and 3 were keepers. That’s really good number for inshore fishing(today we are having less fish than ever) and it is the most fish I caught in inshore.
Lesson learned:
- Test, Test. Try everything you can think of.
- Test the test results. - I looked at the how fish bites my baits and try hook baits differently.
- Test more
- And Patient
- Got to face tough situation - Heavy rain and I did not have rain coat with me(it is summer and I thought weather will be warm)
- Prepare for emergency, backup plan - always prepare - it is extra step that;s why I did not have my rain coat. I knew there was thurnderstore forecast but I did not listen weather station.
Well, I got soaked, but trip was good. I learned something and fishes for dinner and release my stress from work and my venture - Priceless.
