772 - What are some fishing techniques for beginners?

Here are some simple fishing techniques for beginners:

1. Bottom Fishing: Fish on the bottom of a lake or river. Use a weighted line with bait like worms or minnows.
2. Float Fishing: Use a floating bobber and attach bait like worms or fish eggs. When the bobber goes underwater, it means you have a bite.
3. Casting: Cast your line into the water using a gentle motion. Practice makes perfect.
4. Trolling: Move your boat slowly while casting your line. This is a good way to cover a lot of water.
5. Still Fishing: Stand still in one spot and wait for fish to come to you.

Remember to:

• Be patient
• Use the right bait
• Handle the fish gently
• Follow local fishing rules

Have fun fishing!
