Lesson Learned from My Latest Inshore Fishing Trip.

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:

1. Test, Test.  Try everything you can think of.
2. Test the test results. – I looked at the how fish bites my baits and try hook baits differently.
3. Test more
4. And Patient
5. 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)
6. 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.
