What is the best time of day to catch fish?
What is the best time of day to catch fish? According to DNR fisheries bureau chief Joe Larscheid, fish tend to be most active during crepuscular times (dawn or dusk), which is when fish are feeding and subsequently when fishing is best. As light levels in the water diminish, prey fish tend to stray from cover to feed and predators follow their prey.
What is the best bait for fishing?
Some of the best freshwater fishing bait include worms, leeches, minnows, crayfish, crickets and grasshoppers. Select good saltwater baits including sea worms, eels, crabs, shrimp, strips of squid, and cut-up pieces of fish. You can purchase live bait, or better yet, find your own to save money.
