A perfect cast is the most crucial part of fly fishing, so perfecting your casting technique is crucial. A good day to perfect your cast is when the weather is poor. After your frustration has simmered down, you can return to fishing.
 
If your minnows are dead, don't just throw them away. The bait may be dead, but you can still catch a fish with it. To attract fish using dead minnows cut the minnow in half prior to baiting your line.
 
Bass can be caught with grubs. These mini lures can result in some trophy fish. They are often used as bait for smallmouth bass but may also catch largemouth bass as well. They work good when fishing in high reservoirs when there isn't that much coverage.
 
When you're fly fishing, avoid the wind. If there is too much wind then casting will become lest accurate. There is less wind in the early morning or the evening which is the best period to fly fish. When it is too windy, keep the wind to your back.
 
When you are in a boat while fishing, it is advantageous to use a depth finder. A depth finder helps a fisherman not only know the depth of the water, but it also allows the fisherman to judge how deeply he should fish according to the temperature of the outdoors and the temperature of the water.

A fish finder is an electronic device that utilizes sonar to detect the presence of fish. Some fishermen may prefer not to use fish finders. Those fishermen think that fishing is a sport and no advantage should be used while fishing.
 
You need to convince fish to take the bait in order to catch them. This can be done by using lures that mimic specific creatures. Choose bait and lures which resemble the food that the fish expect to find at each season; such as grubs, frogs or minnows.
 
Night fishing if different from daylight fishing; therefore, a different approach should be taken. Night fishing, however, can be very rewarding. When you fish for certain species you want to do certain things, like use a heavier tackle for small-mouthed bass so that you have a sturdier "feel" when your lure is engulfed in the water. Lures made of materials such as hair jigs, pork rinds, or plastic worms work well for night fishing. You might want to consider a single lure to avoid tangles.
