I had another question regarding angler etiquette.
What happens if a boater switches to what the co angler is fishing. Should the co angler out of respect switch their lure so they’re not throwing 2 of the same at one time?
Took my nephew out for his first time fishing on a boat/kayak. Said he always liked to fish, but couldn’t get to the spots he wanted. Fishing must come naturally to him because I took him where ever he wanted and he caught these. 3 fish for 12 lbs. Not a bad bag for a first timer.
I feel like if I explain the context, it will be better to understand what I am asking.
I broke down a lake before my league night. I had never fished it before and I rigged everything for what I expected to be and felt confident in the night before. As it turned out I was correct on gaging what I needed. However, I felt a little overwhelmed with how I was fishing. I really felt like I wasn’t “downloading” the information as effectively or efficiently as I could. As the week went by, I felt like I needed to start with a baseline to gauge what I would need to correct. Return speed, depth and plotting my points of attack.
So my question is do you all have a plan/baseline when you’re fishing? What does something like that look like. What are the things that are most important to you, that start out with that stay consistent and adjust over the period of time?
Excited to start my first kayak league tomorrow. I’ve gone over all the rules and it’s more or less time lines and how to CPR your fish. So I don’t make an a$$ out of myself, what are some of the unwritten rules to go by. For example, I don’t know how much distance I should give my fellow anglers before it starts to be an issue. What are other things I should know about?
