Hello again everyone! I love to learn as much as I can about all kinds of
fishing. I often breeze by to see if I can pick up a few tips and tricks
from you Peeps. I enjoy some of these tips and Tricks and often find a few
that really make my fishing trips better.
I would like to propose to you all that perhaps some peeps would enjoy
sharing some of their tips with others, and maybe we could begin a Tree of
Tricks and Tips?!

Ok?!
#1. Tree of Tricks and Tips..........I propose to begin with:
Spinning reels are notorious beasts when it comes to line twist. Having said
this and everyone who fishes one knows this fact. I learned a Trick that
will untwist your line every time and avoid having to eventually respool.
Sorry but it only works if you are fishing out of a BOAT:
First cut off the bait, second, while you are trolling along, release about
100 feet of line out behind your boat. Re-engage your reel and pull the line
through the water for about 2 or 3 minutes at a speed of about 10mph. The
friction of the water pulling against the line will remove the twist. Reel
the line back while still moving.

#2. Tree of Tricks and Tips:
This one is for all the peeps who love to Catfish and live in the areas
where Catawba trees and Catawba worms are prevalent. Break off the head of
the worm and with a toothpick, turn the worm inside out. This one ranks up
there in the top ten. Don't believe? Well then when no ones
looking....just try it. You Will believe!

#3 Tree of Tricks and Tips: anyone??

Actually, there are some non-boat methods which will work, perhaps not as
well, but they can definitely help. Access to a pier, stream or long enough
section of shoreline can get the job done. I've also read that walking the
line through grass works too, but I can't verify that. I've used the other
water methods.
