How to Organize Your Swim |
|
|
After you have selected your swim the next step is setting up your gear and swim. Keeping your swim organized and tidy whilst static session fishing makes life a lot easier than having your tackle thrown down every which way. Not only does it keep things at hand, but it can help you to avoid making silly little mistakes which sometimes cost you fish. The following points outline some of the more important considerations when static bait fishing:
First erect your shelter. Some questions you should ask yourself are: In which direction is the wind blowing? Can I see the lake to observe fish movement? Is there adequate space to land fish? Is it too close to the water's edge? These simple questions are very often overlooked by anglers.
Having an organized bivvy is just as important as having an organized swim. Knowing where things are when you need them makes life so much easier. Pay special attention to the small and sharp items of tackle, such as needles and hooks. Keep important items of tackle at hand, such as scales, slings, sacks, forceps, Klin-ik, cameras. Make sure that your rods are not placed so that you are constantly falling over them. |
