introduction

• Fishing is a great past time, which requires a
  lot of patience and time. In this presentation I
  will discuss the few basic types of fishing and
  equipment that are generally used around the
  world. The 3 types include bait fishing, lures
  and fly fishing.
• The problems of the modern anglers are still
  those of his ancestor where to find fish, how to
  approach them, and what sort of bait to use (3)

3 types of fishing

1. Bait fishing- use of live bait (worms, crickets,
   small fish, eggs) or artificial foods (power
   bait, rubber worms)
2. Lure- usually made of metal or plastic. Painted
   different colors to make flamboyant and
   appetizing
3. Fly fishing- use of imitation fly's and insects
   found around lakes and rivers

I. Bait Fishing

• The most basic of fishing and the most common
  type of fishing for younger fisher folk
• There are a few components to bait fishing
• 1. basic setup.
• 2. casting.
• 3. waiting

5
Bait fishing

• Basic setup

1. Weights- weights hold down part of the line when
   bait fishing. It allows the bait to float at a
   certain height above the ground.
2. Swivel- holds weights back from sliding down
   line. The main purpose of the swivel is to allow
   the line to untwist during line retrieval,
   preventing undesirable tangling. (2)
3. Leader line- extra line tied to swivels or end of
   another fishing line. Allows you to extend the
   length of your line
4. Hook (treble or worm hook)- three prongs on a
   treble hook and just one J hook on a worm hook.
5. Bait ( live or artificial)- powerbait-wide range
   of colors-, worms, salmon eggs, plastic
   worms/fish

Casting

• Casting is really important when it comes to bait
  fishing, just because you have so much weight and
  parts to your setup you dont want to loose
  anything.
• Step by step directions
• Bring around over your shoulder
• Flip reel so line will release as you cast
• Cast over head releasing line as the pole comes
  in front of you
• When weight, swivel and bait hit the water wait a
  few second to it will sink.
• Flip the reel bar (Bail) so that you can reel it
  in when there's a fish at the end of your line.

9
Waiting

• Bait casting takes some time, unless your lucky
  and you catch a fish as soon as you cast.
• Just watch the tip of your pole. When you see it
  bending start reeling.

10
II. Lure fishing

• The purpose of the lure is to use movement,
  color, and vibration to grab the fish's attention
  and cause him to bite the hook. (4)
• There are hundreds of different types of lure
  with each its own color.
• Also different types of fish go after different
  types of lures.
• Pretty easy concept, cast and reel back in.
• Set up
• style
• types

11
Set up

• For lure fishing its pretty basic just tie your
  fishing know to the eye of the lure and cast
• there is no need for leader or weights, all
  though some people may attach a swivel to prevent
  twisting of the line.

12
Style
And Movement

• Lures act as smaller bait for fish so you want to
  try to mimic the real thing.
• This can be done by just flicking your pole up,
  down, left, or right.
• Different lures have different patterns of
  moving. Sinking, jumping, floating, swimming
• Try whatever seems most relevant.

13
Types of lures

• Different fish, different lures.
• Some Examples
• Panther martin- lake or river
• kastmaster- lake or river
• Rapala- ocean, lake, river
• Squids- ocean fishing
• Frogs- river, lake
• Jigs- lake, river, ocean

14
III. Fly Fishing

• One of the hardest types of fishing. This style
  requires a lot of practice and talent.
• Casting
• Flies
• Line

15
Casting

• 10 and 2 casting
• when your bringing your rod and line forward you
  want to come to about 10 oclock and when going
  backward stop at around 2 o clock.
• The line when casting should look like a J
  unfolding.

16
Casting

• As brought forward the line will roll forward
  creating a front loop
• When line is straight you can bring it back for
  a longer cast or lay the line down to begin
  reeling it in

17
FLYs

• Just like lures there are hundreds of different
  fly's that are used for different fish and
  different areas.
• Most flys are hand made, and because there so
  small there kind of pricey
• Components of a fly are hook, lead, threads,
  feathers, fabrics, beads, glue.

18
Fly examples

• 1. Woolly bugger-
• 2. Adams -
• 3. midges-
• 4. mosquito-
• 5. Black gnats-
• 6. Crickets-

19
line

• Fly fishing line is different from regular line.
  They are a lot thinker in diameter and not easily
  broken.
• It comes it 3 types floating, intermediate, and
  sinking
• In fly fishing your not casting the fly, like you
  would in lure or bait fishing. You are casting
  the line which is why it is so much thicker and
  heavier than regular fishing line.
• Leaders are attached to fly line for lower
  visibility to the fish.

20
Fly fishing its not easy

• THEY seem to take a masochistic pride in making
  it hard to catch fish. Instead of lobbing a
  weighty lure with a stout pole, fly-fishermen
  spend years perfecting the looping casts that
  court entanglement on every nearby branch(4)
• the most skittish species as a test of
  skill.(5)

21
Types of fishing conclusion

• That concludes the 3 basic types of fishing
• Bait fishing
• Set-up weights, swivels, leader, hooks and bait
• Casting over head or shoulder and let sink
  before you flip the bail
• Time, wait for the fish and watch the tip
• Lure
• Swivels are optional
• Types of lures
• Style and movement
• Fly fishing
• 10 and 2 casting, and creating a loop
• Flies
• Floating, intermediate, and sinking lines

22
Equipment/ clothing
These are the basic things you will need to start
fishing. Everything listed has a different size
and/or different use for the type of fishing you
will be doing.

• Fishing pole- different range of sizes,
  materials, and uses
• Reel/line- spinning, bait casting, fly reel
• Vest/ tackle box
• Clippers
• Hemostats
• License

23
Fishing poles

• There are thousands of poles available on the
  market today. Each has a certain weight a certain
  length and a different use. To list the basics
  they are
• Ocean poles- much stronger and thicker compared
  to a lake or river pole. Some are shorter but
  stronger for catching big fish
• Regular poles- usually at a max. length of 6 to 7
  feet. These are the most used and common poles
  when it comes to river or lake fishing.
• Fly rods- some of the longer poles in fishing,
  reaching from 6 to 10 ft long. Many types of
  materials, mainly carbon. Specially designed for
  casting thicker fly lines.

24
REELs

• The main component on a fishing pole.
• There are a few types of reels but the most
  common are.
• Spinning reel- The Spinning Reel is the most
  common type of reel you will encounter. This reel
  has a visible, exposed, spool with a wire loop
  called a bail that moves around the spool as you
  crank the line back in (1)

25
Reels cont.

• Baitcasting reel- This type of reel is mounted
  on top of the rod, like a miniature winch. The
  spool is arranged perpendicular to the plane of
  the rod. (1)

Reels cont.

• Fly Fishing reel- The fly fishing reel is the
  simplest design of all the fishing reels, and
  consists of a drum-like spool with a hole in it
  to play the line out. (1)

27
Vest and tackle box

• Vests- usually the best way to keep everything
  with you and making it lightweight
• Tackle box- keep all your hooks, baits swivels,
• fishing line, lures organized in one box

28

• Clippers- cutting fishing line made easy.
• Just dont cut the wrong end!!
• Hemostats- easy hook removal
• License- daily or annual license available
