4 golden rules of fishing

01

Study the water

Before every session, research the bottom contours, depths and underwater features. Fish always hold in predictable spots.

02

Watch the weather

Atmospheric pressure and water temperature have a strong influence on fish activity. A falling barometer often triggers a feeding spell.

03

Quality groundbait

Regular pre-baiting of your swim before you start fishing significantly improves results, particularly for carp and bream.

04

Silence is your ally

Fish are highly sensitive to vibrations. Walk quietly along the bank, avoid banging the boat - and your catches will improve noticeably.
