Five things you should absolutely never do when it comes to ultralight fishing.
2
Hello and welcome back to Fish Anything.
3
For those of you who are new to the channel, I absolutely love ultralight fishing.
4
For those of you who have been watching for a while, you already know that.
5
As much as I would rather be outside today actually fishing and filming on the water and trying to catch fish, unfortunately we've gotten a ton of snow recently and the wind is really high and it's really cold.
6
So this is a good excuse to sit inside and talk about this topic.
7
If I'm being honest with you, I've had this topic in my notes for a long time and I'm just now getting around to it.
8
So hopefully you enjoy it, but really what today is all about is things to avoid while fishing, and specifically ultralight fishing, because if you avoid these things, you'll have less headaches on the water,
9
and hopefully you'll catch more fish.
10
These are really simple things, but I would say for those of you who are either newer to ultralight
11
or a little bit more amateur in your fishing journey, I think these are extremely relevant, and they will help you.
12
But for those of you who have a lot of experience, this is probably a little bit more of reminder.
13
That all being said, I got to give a shout out to my brother-in-law, Ty.
14
He is the inspiration behind this video.
15
Ty and I fish every time we get together.
16
We always have a great time.
17
He puts the mule jigs and ultralight equipment to use every single time, but unfortunately he's learned the hard way on some of this stuff
18
and that's why I wanted to call out this topic in a video
19
so that way we can reduce headaches for all of you.
20
So with that being said, let's get to the first one.
21
And oh by the way, these are in no particular order.
22
First First and foremost, you should never cast too heavy of lures on an ultralight.
23
What I mean by that is every single rod that you pick up, whether it's ultralight or not, has a set of ratings on it.
24
So in this case, this ultralight right here is 5.5 feet long, but it's rated for 1.32 ounce through 3.16 ounce,
25
which basically means that anything above 3.16 ounce is not intended to be fished on this blank.
26
And unfortunately, I think that people make this mistake quite often.
27
They'll grab a rod, they don't necessarily look at the ratings, and they just start or casting whatever on it.
28
If I was to throw like this popper right here, which is probably like 5 eighths ounce or a half ounce, if I threw that on this rod,
29
what I would ultimately do is likely damage this blank while I'm fishing it, and eventually, my guess is this rod would actually break on a cast or potentially on a fish.
30
Now, sadly, I do think a lot of anglers make this mistake, and when they do, unfortunately, I think they start to blame the rod company, but it really isn't the rod company's fault.
31
It's really a user error.
32
If you're casting gear that is going to ultimately strain your equipment too much, you're only asking for problems.
33
So I would just say this.
34
Pay attention to the ratings it's okay to probably push them a little bit, but if you are casting on the upper end of the ratings, just be a little bit more gentle in your casting motion.
35
I would not be casting super hard with something that's a quarter ounce on this, because I think that that could potentially damage my equipment.
36
The second thing that you should never do is lock down your drag.
37
Now this is an ultralight rod, and this is intended to utilize the drag, pretty much no matter what size fish we're talking about.
38
Whether you're going after 6 to 7 inch bluegill or 14 and 15 inch trout, you need to make sure that those fish are positioned to peel some drag.
39
If I'm using 6 pound braid and I lock it down
40
and maybe that braid is strong enough to pull those fish in, the rod may actually end up having way too much strain on it.
41
So what will happen is you may actually end up breaking your rod
42
because you're putting way too much flex on it and you're not giving it any cushion.
43
So that's what a drag is all about and that's why
44
when it comes to choosing a reel you want to look for a reel
45
that has a smooth drag and Specifically with ultralight fishing you really want a smooth drag
46
because oftentimes We're using really low diameter weaker line
47
and you really have to rely on
48
that drag to make sure you're not snapping your line
49
So ultimately don't ever lock down your drag with a spinning reel on an ultralight setup
50
Because that's going to put way too much pressure on your rod
51
if all of a sudden you're catching a bunch of bluegill and it's doing okay, but then you hook into that 15 inch bass randomly, and that's bound to happen, and your drag is locked down,
52
you might find your rod explode about halfway back to the boat.
53
And that's no fun, because then you're out of commission and you can't fish anymore.
54
The next thing actually has to do with the reel as well.
55
So after you've got your drag settings proper, and you go to make a cast, open that puppy up, make the cast, but do not engage your reel to close the bale.
56
Close the bale by hand.
57
The reason that's important is because that's going to actually reduce line twist.
58
Now the last thing you want to be doing
59
when you're out on the water fishing and trying to catch as many big bluegill or whatever you're after as possible, you don't want to be dealing with line twist.
60
It is a total pain in the butt and it takes fishing time away from you.
61
And we all know that fishing time is precious.
62
So every single time I make a cast, I open it, cast it, close it by hand.
63
I never reel the handle.
64
And it may seem simple and it may seem like something that shouldn't make a big difference, but that little split second oftentimes leads to like a couple loops of line coming out.
65
And then all of a sudden they start twisting up and they lead to line twist and it creates such a headache.
66
And I'm telling you, one simple step to remove that headache, it's worth it.
67
Okay, number four.
68
Now that we've got our gear all dialed in, the next thing actually relates to landing fish.
69
And this one is very simple and self-explanatory, but I think a lot of people still make the mistake, and quite honestly, I still make this mistake, and I know it's the wrong decision to make, but I still do it.
70
When it comes to landing fish, after you've got one hooked, never, ever, ever try to land the fish by grabbing the line.
71
What you do when you do
72
that is essentially you put all of the point of pressure from right here to the jig, and so what's happening is you're putting way too much tension on a short piece of line right there,
73
and even if you're fishing for smaller fish and you've got a little bluegill pinned and you grab the line, it still may be enough pressure to actually snap your line.
74
So then not only do you lose your gear, but you lose the fish and then you got to retie.
75
So you're costing yourself both fish and time.
76
And that's about the worst thing you could possibly do.
77
So never ever grab your line to land fish.
78
That one sometimes is hard, if I'm being honest with you, especially when you're bank fishing, because we don't always have nets with us.
79
And sometimes all of a sudden you got a big fish, but I'm telling you, try to find a way of landing
80
that fish without grabbing the line because the second you touch that line, you are risking losing everything.
81
Don't grab the line.
82
Now last but certainly not least is actually very similar to the last one, but it all has to do with your rod.
83
So what you should never do, and this is actually across the board, but definitely with ultralight, never high stick your rod.
84
What do I mean by high sticking your rod?
85
It means that when you're landing a fish, you're grabbing up the blank.
86
If you grab right here, what are you effectively doing?
87
You're getting rid of all of this.
88
This is the strongest portion of your rod right here.
89
This is the backbone of your rod.
90
If you grab right here, you're putting all the pressure between your fingertips and the rod tip, and that's the weakest portion of the rod.
91
So when you do that, you're increasing the likelihood that this rod right here snaps.
92
The other thing is you might potentially break the line by doing this, but I would say you're actually most likely to break your rod.
93
And that's no fun because, you know, some of these rods cost over $100.
94
Some of them, you know, are a little bit cheaper, but no matter what you pay, you never want to waste your money by snapping your equipment.
95
So never, ever, ever high stick a rod.
96
And I can tell you, I made that mistake when I was in high school.
97
And it was actually a bass fishing setup.
98
It was like a medium power rod.
99
but I went to swing maybe a two pound bass and I, you know, I was pond fishing.
100
I grabbed about halfway up the rod blank on my medium power rod
101
and I swung that fish from the pond to the bank
102
and my rod just exploded halfway up and it was totally my fault, but that was a valuable, you know, lesson for me.
103
Fortunately, it was a really cheap rod.
104
It was like a $30 rod.
105
So I did not break like a $200 piece of equipment, but it was a good lesson and I've never made that mistake again.
106
So these may be simple reminders for a lot of the anglers that watched today's video, but I'm hoping that these help someone that's a little bit newer to the sport,
107
because ultimately I want you to have fun on the water.
108
I want you to catch a lot of fish on the water, and I want you to have the least amount of headaches possible, because fishing is meant to be fun.
109
And I think we all know, for those of you, for those of us who have been fishing a long time, we all know that sometimes fishing can be a headache if you make these simple mistakes.
110
So don't make them.
111
If you have any questions, or if you would like to add any other things to the list, drop a comment below.
112
Otherwise, if you want to watch some actual on-the-water ultralight fishing, make sure to check out some of the videos
113
that I link in the description below
114
because I have got a lot of fishing videos and I would love for you to take a watch.
115
Have a good day.
116
We'll catch you next time.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
