CATCHING SALMON FROM RIVER BANKS THAT ARE TREE LINED<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Salmon, or any other type of fishing where perhaps you would use a lure can be very frustrating when you walk along a river bank and find a superb lie.\u00a0 The only snag is that there are lots of trees or bushes so you are unable to cover the fish because the water is too deep to wade or branches hang fairly low.\u00a0 The fish are there and showing but what should you do?<\/p>\n

We have found that Salmon, Sea Trout and Brownies are all suckers for a well presented plug such as a Rapala and this is the answer.\u00a0 Put on a FLOATING<\/span> <\/strong>Rapala of the appropriate size and colour that you think should work.\u00a0 Now comes the crafty bit.\u00a0 Get upstream of the lie to a position where you can get a cast out and cast the Rapala across the river.\u00a0 DO NOT CLOSE THE BAIL<\/span> <\/strong>but instead feed line until the Rapala floats down to where the fish are lying and then close the bail and fish the Rapala normally and with any luck you will hook a fish especially if it is a freshly run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
