Basic Sunfish Fishing Techniques

Basic Sunfish Fishing Techniques

Fishing for sunfish is extremely easy most of the time. Most anglers set
up their kids with a shorter light action rod so they have better control.
4 to 6 pound test will usually do the trick on a small spinning or
spin-casting reel. If you want to keep it simple, set up a line with a
bobber, small hook and a piece of worm. Most anglers that don't have
as much success are using hooks that are way too big.

For anglers that are trying to do some bass fishing while getting their
kids some action from sunfish should consider using leeches or lures.
If you use small leeches, it is harder to get the bait off the hook which
will give you more time to concentrate on fishing instead of baiting your
kids' hook. Leeches will catch bass also, which will give them a nice
surprise and an excellent fight on light tackle. Small lures can be used
also. For more experienced anglers, small jigs and spinners will
produce bigger fish. For younger anglers, you can set them up with
small jigs underneath a bobber and have them work the bait in slowly
with light twitches. This will also help young anglers learn how to start
using lures while getting plenty of action.
