Fishing
Wednesday and Thursday this week I attempted to fish for perch in the canal. I was unsuccessful on both occasions. Actually, I have never caught a fish ever in my life ;(
This is a Pinterest Board.
On Wednesday, the fishing shop was closed by the time I got off work and I decided to use corn. When we got to the canal, the friendly canal regulars told me corn is no good, and that I need to dig for worms. Next day, I bought worms and went back. Still no luck.
A dear friend of mine sent me some potential reasons why I went home empty handed…
- “Little fishies” ≠ hungry fishies
- The fish at the canal are very small, and I was nervous about what to do once I caught one.
- Shallow water = spooked fish
- They didn’t seem bothered about anything to me.
- Oxygen + temperature = sluggish fish
- I don’t know what this means.
- Time of day matters
- We were fishing at dusk.
- Your worms might’ve been too chunky
- I feel sooo bad about killing those worms…
On account of trying my best, and not really wanting to get too involved with the usual suspects, I have decided to give up for now.
