Okay boys and girls. Since it's the new year, and fishing season is close at hand (for some of us closer than for others), it's time to decide what technique you are either going to learn or master this year. Since all of us tend to get into our 'comfort zones', where are you going to 'break out' this year.
For me, it's jig/tube fishing. Last year I concentrated on fishing soft plastics. Learned to be a pretty good worm fisherman (T-Rigs and C-Rigs). Also began to learn to fish with flukes.
I've been watching differnt shows, reading different articles, and have started practicing my flipping/pitching techniques. One this I've discovered is that when I flip/pitch, I'm moving the bait to fast. I need to slow down.
Took some time last night to pitch both a worm and a jig along the carpet in the basement. Really trying to watch the action. I've decided that I'm imparting way too much action on both the jig and worms most of the time. I'm going to slow down 'technique' more this year.
