Watch for movement when you throw your lure in the water. If you can see movement in the water, your lure is working correctly.
How can I bait my hooks
Tie a piece meat on the hook to bait it. Next, tie the meat around your hook's eye.
Are there different types of lures?

How To
How to Cast a Fishing Rod Easily
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. You should hold the rod at a slight angle to ensure the line is parallel with the ground. When you start moving the rod forward, keep the tip of the rod perpendicular to the surface of the water. If the tip of the rod touches the water's surface, fish won’t bite. You can increase the distance between the tip of the rod and the surface of the water by practicing this technique.
Here are some tips for casting a rod if you're not confident yet.
Hold the rod as close as you can to your chest. You will be able to easily control the rod’s direction without having your back bent.
The tripod may be set up on the shoreline and/or on a rock edge to aid in casting a heavy-duty rod. This will allow you secure your rod and reel while keeping it in place.
Third, consider getting a small reel over a more expensive one. A low-cost spinning reel will allow for you to cast greater distances. It will also improve your hand eye coordination.
A fishing pole holder is another option. These holders are made to securely hold the rod while maintaining its upright position. They're easy to store away after use and protect the rod from getting damaged.
Fifth, practice your casting technique until you feel comfortable with the motion. Casting a fishing pole takes practice.
Sixth, remember that the key to successful fishing is patience. You must wait for the right moment to strike and then fight hard to bring the fish in.
