Fishing Techniques

  • For Northern pike

    Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

  • For Atlantic salmon

    When fishing for Atlantic salmon, pay close attention to water depth and current, as they often hold in specific locations to conserve energy.

  • For Brown trout

    When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.
