In
Lakes
All
fish need shelter. Shelter provides protection from predators such
as birds and bears. Common types of shelter include beaver dams
and lodges, sunken logs, large rocks and boulders. If you can find
one of these in your fishing hole, you are bound to find fish.
In
Streams and Rivers
Shelter
in rivers and steams also include deep pools and long stretches
of ruffles. There are several places large fish can hide in a stream.
They are:
- under an
object such as a overhanging bank or snag
- in a deep
pool
- in riffled
areas
Trying
these areas first will often provide better results in your fishing
endeavours.
