In previous articles, we have already briefly talked about some points about safety in sport fishing charters marathon fl. You will remember that, in the night fishing article, we have talked about several points that are important to avoid bad drinks.

In this new article we will see new important points that we must take into account when going fishing to ensure a most satisfactory day.

Shall we start?

Tips for safety in sport fishing

In every sport there are some tips or recommendations to avoid unnecessary damage. We must be aware that the sea is a factor that can vary according to the moons, the wind… and they are points that we must take into account as we have already commented in our post on tides and winds.

Therefore, we must take many points into account before going fishing and therefore it is necessary to have some minimum security measures to save ourselves the occasional unnecessary upset.

NECESSARY MATERIAL FOR A DAY OF FISHING

Sunglasses

Every fisherman must protect his eyes from the sun’s rays to avoid damage to the eye, as well as avoiding reflections that can be caused on the surface of the water and that cause our eyes to close and that we lose a bite.

Lifejacket

If we are going to fish from a boat or boat, we must wear a vest, it may even be necessary if we fish from land, for example, if we are located in an area with a lot of rocks.

Clothing and footwear suitable for fishing

Protecting ourselves from the cold or rain is essential and having good footwear according to the fishing technique that we are going to use is also of vital importance.

The best footwear is that it is waterproof and non-slip to avoid falls or slips if we do Rock fishing and waterproof if we are going to enter the sea a little.

A cutting utensil

Surely in one of the Granada surfcasting videos you have seen Emi equipped with a small nail clipper that she uses on occasions to cut the line.

First aid kit

It is important that when we go out we always carry a small first-aid kit with material such as: alcohol, bandages, sun cream, adhesive tape, Band-Aids…

Lighting at night fishing

There are many fishermen who enjoy a night shift much more and prefer to go fishing when the day is over.

In these situations, we recommend having small lighting elements such as a headlamp to be able to illuminate our path.

BETTER ACCOMPANIED THAN ALONE

In many of the beaches there is hardly any coverage, so being accompanied by someone who can give us a hand in the event of an accident is ideal.

The situation may occur that there is an accident and if we are accompanied by a friend or family member it is easier for them to give notice of our situation.

In addition to all this, fishing in company is always more fun.

Check the weather

It is important that before planning our fishing day we take a look at the weather and what forecast we are going to have.

On our website, in the Weather and Wind Information section, you will be able to see the weather it will do in a week in your location.

All this is worthless if we are not aware of where we are and all the dangers to which we may be exposed. Therefore, having common sense and not taking risks by skipping precautions depends only on us.

Garbage to the container

Another point that we could not miss is the issue of garbage. It is vitally important that, once your day of fishing is over, you remove all the waste to the container, since it is not the first time that a fisherman has nailed a hook from another fisherman who has left it lying on the sand, or entangled with the line.

And here is this week’s article. We hope that all these points that we have discussed have been useful to you and that, if you were missing any point to complete for your greater safety, now you can implement it in your fishing routine.
