The materials here can be used for fishing in either fresh or salt water. Many types of fish will take the lures,
36、 or the bait which can be used on the hooks included here. If youve never fished before - or if you have - these hints may help you. ARTIFICIAL LURES Your kit contains three different sized spoons which are excellent for trolling from a moving raft or boat. They also may be used with a ole or branch
37、 in a jigging action. In a stream, the current will keep the spoon mOVing, and will give it a life-like action. If you fish in still water, however, you must impart this action to the lure, through the use of line or rod. The spoon will take many types of fresh and salt-water fish. The large spoon c
38、an be fished in water where there are weeds if the weed guard wire is kept at an angle above the point of the hook. Often fish are found lurking in weedy spots-try them if open water does not bring results. You also have a red and white striped spoon which can be used in open water but not so effect
39、ively in other areas. In using either of these spoons be sure to attach one of the wire leaders to it by means of the snap and tie the other end of the leader firmly to the line. 6 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-58025 There are a
40、lso pieces of.red and yellow flannel in the kit. Small strips of this material can be tied to the plain hooks in the box, and an excellent artifcial lure will result. Such a lure must be moved through the water, to give the appearance of a brightly-colored, wounded minnow. Either the red or yellow c
41、loth, or a combination the two may be used. Be sure that the cloth is tied securely to the hook using a piece of your parachute shroud line as a tie. Other materials can be used to make artificial lures. A sliver of wood, tied to a hook and worked in the water, . oftn looks very much like a small, i
42、njured fish, and will cause larger fish to strike. LEADERS You have both nylon and steel leaders in your kit. The nylon should be used for small fish. The steel leader should be used if you stand a chance of hooking larger fish, particularly those which have sharp teeth and might cut your line. HOOK
43、S Your plain hooks may be used for bait fishing, either from rafts, boat or shore. They may be baited with various types of worms and grubs, dug from the ground or found beneath rotting logs or in old stumps. If you are afloat on the ocean, small pieces of fish, cut from a fish you have caught with
44、one of your artificial lures, often will be more successful than any other bait. A bite of biscuit, or meat from a bird will also serve this purpose. Always keep a piece of your last fish as bait for the next one. In fishing with plain hooks, you may want to use the sinkers which are in the kit. It
45、is seldom necessary to use these with artificial lures. It is not necessary to use the sinker unless you wish to troll your bait deep, from a moving boat, or unless the bait will not sink on its own weight. Wrap the sinker around the line or leader, and bend the nipples into place to secure it. Be c
46、areful not to lose the clinch sinkers. LINES You haveboth heavy and light line. If you are trailing a lure behind you in open water, it probably will be wise to use the heavy line and the steel leader, for youre likely to hook into something big. If you are working small streams or lakes, and can se
47、e that the fish are fairly small, it is reasonably safe to use the lighter gear. DONT TIE THE LINE TO YOUR FINGER! A big fish may cause you injury or may break the line. Secure the end of the line to a grip in the raft, or to the belt loop in your trousers if you have no one else in the boat with yo
48、u. 7 Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-A-A-58025 If there are two or more in the boat, let one man hold the end of the line, while the fisherman uses the body of the line to impart action to the lure or to hook the fish when they strike
49、. Sometimes, when fishing with meat or similar bait, it is necessary to let the fish take the bait in his mouth before you give a sharp tug on the line to set the hook. With artificial lures, set the hook as soon as you feel the strike. Try for small rather than large fish. You have some idea of the“strength of the line. If the fish is so large that you are
