By Kristen Baird


Sport fishing has become important for entertainment for many people. Others view it as a career for which it is an important source of livelihood. Professional anglers and amateurs must take precaution to avoid accidents. The tips below on fishing Naples FL are thus essential when going for an excursion by visitors.

The main food for fish is microscopic plants or phytoplankton such like algae. These do grow at the shallow edges of water bodies and near structures like boats and decking areas. These are some of the areas with high populations of fish. Every visitor or angler will enjoy visiting these sites. Thus, go for a map that shows the sites.

Baits attached to the hook to attract fish. Make sure that you have the right bait. Just as people like to eat, different types of food so do fish. Choose the right bait for the kind of fish you are trying to catch. There are two types of baits for fishing natural and artificial. Examples of natural baits are crickets and grasshoppers for crayfish.

It is important to stay safe while catching fish. If using a boat wear your life jacket. Ensure that your life jacket is of the right size so that it may not slide over in your head. Bring along other safety items like a flashlight, radio and cell phones. Fins are sharp. Always handle fish carefully to avoid being injured. Likewise, keep sharp objects like knives and hooks in one box to avoid injury.

Carry with you enough drinks and snacks for use during the trip. After eating, remember not to dispose of fresh litter into the waters. This may poison the fish apart from decay that will lead to lack of oxygen in water and subsequent death of fish. Therefore, carry a waste paper basket where you will put the litter for proper disposal later on.

Carry with yourself equipment for catching fish. When purchasing the gear for your first time liaise with a professional trader who will assist in selecting suitable equipment. Various types of equipment are required ranging from reels, lines and rods. Select a rod of the right size and weight depending on the type of fish and the place you are going for harvesting fish. A rod with a longer handle is suitable for catching heavier fish at a distance.

As soon as make, your catch drifts the fish out of water as soon as possible before it gets tired. Handle the fish well with wet hands and remove the hook immediately. If the fish is too tired and not swimming or active return it back to water to regain its energy.

Keep in mind that the fishing industry is guided by rules, which must be followed. There is a penalty for breaking the rules. Therefore, you need to check before going on a fishing excursion on what the law says. Check on insurance policy and provisions of the local authority on the number of fish you are expected to harvest, the species and the size. Most rules prohibit harvesting of fingerings and immature fish. On completion of the trip, clean the watercraft of any refuse.
