Surf Fishing
Surf fishing is the practice of catching fish standing on the shoreline or wading in the surf. Anglers usually target species like red drum or striped bass.
Spearfishing
Spearfishing uses a spear or a specialized spear gun to catch fish. It's an active form of fishing often done while free diving and is selective and sustainable.
Kite Fishing
Kite fishing involves using a kite to carry your baited line out over the water, which can then be dropped to entice fish. It's useful for fishing beyond the surf or from a boat offshore.
Tenkara Fishing
Tenkara is a traditional Japanese fishing technique using a fixed-length rod, line, and fly with no reel. It simplifies fly fishing and is great for backpacking trips.
Bottom Fishing
Bottom fishing is a technique where you drop your bait to the bottom of the water column. It's useful in deeper waters when targeting groundfish like halibut or cod.
Trolling
Trolling involves dragging one or more fishing lines behind a moving boat. It is effective for covering a large area and is commonly used to catch game fish like marlin and tuna.
Spin Fishing
Spin fishing utilizes a spinning lure to attract fish, mimicking small prey. It's versatile and can be used in both freshwater and saltwater environments.
Fly Fishing
Fly fishing involves using lightweight lures, called artificial flies, to catch fish. It's typically used in freshwater like rivers and streams for species like trout and salmon.
Jigging
Jigging is a technique where you move a jig up and down in a jerking motion. This method is good for catching predatory fish that hunt near the bottom, like snapper or grouper.
Ice Fishing
Ice fishing involves catching fish through a hole in the ice of a frozen body of water, using lines and hooks or spears. It's a common method in cold climates during winter.
Deep-Sea Fishing
Deep-sea fishing takes place far from shore in deep waters, targeting species like swordfish and sharks. It often requires a sturdy boat and specialized gear.
Bank Fishing
Bank fishing is done from the shore or edge of a body of water without the need for a boat. It can be a relaxing way to fish for catfish, bass, and panfish.
