Improvised Fishing Hooks


Yes, fishing season has started. 
For those of you that are not big into fishing I would consider getting into it because it is probably the easiest source of food to rely on that it good for you.  Especially since trout season just started recently for those of you that live in new jersey that is.  When fishing for trout, try to go for the moving waters or upstream and even at the bottom of river water falls. 
But besides all that, today's lesson is on improvised fishing  hooks, if you are creative and love the outdoors then you should give this a whirl.  As shown in the image above, these are the basics of improvised hooks.  Yes some are a little challenging but they can be done, you're not burning calories and you're not wasting water stored away in your body  to go looking for these items.  "One mans garbage is another mans treasure", or at least that's how I think that sang goes. But yes if you find garbage look at it twice, and think deeply about what it can be used for.  For instance say you find a Pepsi can or a beer can which is usually lying around just about everywhere.  The tab on that Pepsi can, can be used as an improvised hook.  The second easiest thing to do is find some worms, and start baiting that hook and letting 'em rip.  Another approach would be to try some spear fishing or night time light fishing or even poisoning/stunning the fish, which we will get into tomorrow.

So stay tuned!
