Fishing for Worms

The title might sound funny.  But it's true.  You have to fish (or find) the worm to fish so you can use the worms to fish for fish!  You following me here?  This article will show you how to find worms for fishing.

When and where to look
Look for worms right after a rain, light or hard.  They will be out close to the surface.  Don't look in hard packed and sandy soil, worms won't usually be there.  Look for them in compost piles.  If you turn over large objects such as rocks, wood (boards, etc), bricks, anything that is touching the ground, you may find worms.

Keeping worms
I would recommend that you could possibly start a small worm farm with the worms you have left over after your fishing.  Speaking of worm farms, I will talk about them in a later article.  Meanwhile if you are interested in worm farms, just look up "worm farms" on the search engine.

I  hope that this article is helping you find more worms for you fishing bait to catch a big one (fish that is).

Basic Bass Fishing

Bass are the US' most popular sport fish.  I will show you a little advice on how to catch them. 

Lures
Spinners, crankbaits, and swimmers are the most popular artificial baits.  You can also use poppers, a type of crankbait.
Worms are also good to use as live bait, along with nightcrawlers, and crawdads.  Other types such as small live fish work as well.

Places to Fish
Fish for bass near weeds, docks, and obstacles in the water, such as fallen down trees.  Think about what you would do if you were a fish, where would you take cover?

As I said this is just a little advice to help you catch bass.

Arrow Care

Arrows are one of the most important parts of the bow.  But they need care.  When you go out to soot here are some types common damages to each arrow to look for:

Wooden arrows
  • Look for splinters and small cracks
Aluminum arrows
  • Look for creases, dents, and cracks
Carbon arrows
  • Look for the same thing as aluminum arrows.
Remember to never shoot a cracked arrow, no matter where the crack is.  If you shoot an arrow with a cracked shaft, it could shatter.

Keep arrows in a quiver put some place safe or in a bowcase that has a quiver installed in it.
