Jerk Fishing

I watched as the line on my open cast rod wound round and round. You could distinctively tell the difference between the line that had been in the water from the hint of murky brown that it carried. To my surprise I found myself in a mid yawn as I glance at my watch. The digital face showed 6:30 p.m., 7 hours after I'd started fishing. It was Sunday afternoon and I didn't look forward to the Monday ahead, I mean who doesn't?

Suddenly, the line jerked and a fish was on! I realized that this was my 4rth fish! And when I pulled it out of the water, it was a nice sized bass, the same as the 3 before it. Then it occurred to me that I had set a new record as far as fish caught versus time spent in my pond. Why was I doing so well?

Jerk Fishing. That Sunday afternoon was the first that I had tried this new method of fishing that I heard from a friend. All you simply do is mimick the movement of the minnows near the bank. Just jerk the rod very gently and just enough do make it dart through the water a few inches. Then real in the slack and repeat the proccess. By the way, the person who told about this said the recent science had proved that this triggers some genetic response in the fish and causes it to bite out of habit. It worked for me and it can work for you!

God Bless and Happy Fishing
