It really depends on what type of fish you are trying for and what time of year it is. As a rule of thumb, early in the morning is a good time, specifically at sunrise. \n\nWhat type of fish are you wanting to catch? Where are you going to fish (lake, stream, river?). Once you know those answers, we can help you farther.

I heard this one in Hawaii back in 1994 by a local fishing boat Captain.... it had something to do with fishing being able to smell bannana oil and staying away from the boat and that was supposed to be a natural signal to the fish they were too close to the beach.... basically ... you wouldn't catch any fish.  And the oil could stay on the boat for up to a week... that meant a week of no fish or money from them. He actually checked our coolers to make sure no one had banana's or coconuts.

Rule #1. The most important fundamental, if you want to catch salmon, is action on your bait or lure. If you have good rolling and erratic action, you will have a much better chance of catching salmon. When a salmon hits your bait or lure he is looking for dinner. If your bait looks like a wounded struggling baitfish you have a much better chance of getting the salmon's attention. Let me explain. Salmon have three sensing mechanism they use to find their prey. They are sight, smell and lateral line response. If you are trolling and your lure passes within a few feet of a salmon and he sees it, you will probably catch him. The problem is that in the ocean and most other bodies of water the salmon can't see more than four or five feet. The water is too murky. If you are relying on sight alone, you probably won't bring home many salmon. The second sense is smell. Salmon have an extremely sharp sense of smell but if you are trolling a bait forty feet down and the salmon is at fifty five feet he will never smell the scent trail left by your bait unless he gets right behind it. The third sensing mechanism is the one you want working for you. Down a salmon's side and on his head and back there are tiny hair-like projections called cupula. Each of these has a nerve cell at the end. These cells are used to pick up vibrations in the water. If a salmon is swimming thirty feet down and a school of baitfish swims across the surface above him, he knows exactly what's going on. His lateral line cells pick up the vibrations made by the wiggling tails of the baitfish. He doesn't see them or smell them but he knows exactly where they are. If some of them are wounded and swimming erratically he knows he has his next meal. This is the mechanism you want to take advantage of. If your lure is putting out erratic vibrations twenty or thirty feet from a salmon you can pull him like a magnet. He will follow the vibration like a radar beam and attack your bait. This is why we say action on your bait or lure is the most important strategy you can use. Lures like the Crocodile, the Apex and the Rotary Salmon Killer put out the erratic powerful vibrations that will get you salmon. Whenever you put a bait or lure in the water you should carefully check its action. If it is not rolling or shaking, don't let it down. Sometimes the bait needs adjusting or a hook is lodged at a funny angle. Another possibility is that your boat trolling speed is not right for the lure you are using. Sometimes all you need to do is speed up.\n\nRule #2 Sharp Hooks. This seems like an obvious thing but most fishermen ignore it. In the authors experience, very few salmon hooks are sharp enough even brand new. The author and his Scotty Pro team worked eight years filming salmon hitting baits and lures in the ocean. They learned that the salmon come after your bait time and time again. The average salmon misses or just grazes the bait at least two times before he hits solid enough to get hooked. We observed one salmon hitting a bait twenty two times before he got hooked on the twenty third try. If your hooks are sticky sharp you have a much better chance of that hook digging in as a salmon hits and slashes at the bait. Carry a small file or emery stone and sharpen those hooks on every trip. You will definitely be rewarded with more salmon in the fish box.\n\nSee the link for more details!

White bass fishing is fun and they are also good to eat.\nI prefere to fish for them at night. I use small minnows for bait.You can hang a lantern over the water or get a floating light that hooks to a battery.I like to fish from a boat and just drop the line over the side without a bobber.By keeping the line tight you will feel the fish grab\nthe minnow. You may also use a slip bobber which works great. L.O.L.

Fish - u cast the net into the water(home of the fish) then u leave a while...then when you pull the net, the water(home of fish) escapes through the holes in the net (windows) and finally u catch the fish...Hope this is right...

Worms work! Grey crickets, Power Bait,(either one) on a chartreuse jig have worked for me in the past when fishing for crappie, blue-gill, and bream.\nGood Luck!

It probably depends on the time of the day, remember that most fish do not like to eat during the hottest and brightest part of the day. Good luck next time.

Fish are extremely stupid and many are afraid of everything. Seems your technique is just bad.

If you have to get an answer for that, you are in the wrong business..\nThat is like a fisherman asking where to catch fish.
