How Scuba Diving Can Improve Your Fishing Skills

If you are an angler, then you know that finding fish will improve your odds significantly in catching fish. Anglers use all kind of apparatus to find fish: Fish finders, depth meters, water temperature equipment, etc... It is hard to catch fish, if you can't find them.

These things will help you without a doubt. Learning to use them is not so easy, but who said fishing was easy anyway. If it were easy, they wouldn't call it fishing. You would go out and haul in the fish. Where would be the fun in that?

Benefits of Scuba

There is one thing most fishermen don't think of, scuba diving. Scuba diving you have to be kidding, right? Well no, I am not. When you learn to scuba dive, you will experience something most anglers never do. How many anglers ever breathed under water and saw things from the vantage point of the fish? You will hear the things that fish here and so on. In fishing, like hunting, knowing your quarry is essential to increasing your skills.

• When you are scuba diving, you can see what the fish sees.
• You will note the angle of light.
• You can see how light is refracted in water, causing things to look like there one place when they are another.
• You will notice that things look closer that they are (25% to be exact).
• You will be able to start understanding why you can't find the fish.

Fish are aware of your presence and go hide. Things such as noises on the bank or boats startle the fish.

• Survival is their first instinct and food is their second.

This can be easily observed while scuba diving. You will find that in the water they are not as scared of you as they are when you are on a bank or in a boat. You will also find out that if you stay still long enough, they will come out of hiding and go about there normal ways, looking for food.

A Fish-Eyed View

While diving, you will also note colors don't look the same underwater (yellows and reds are the first to go). What looks good on the bank won't look the same underwater. While diving you can be on the bottom and look up as fish do. Try that with a fish finder or depth finder.

I say these things to let you know the advantages of experiencing things in the same environment. Scuba diving is one way to observe fish in their environment and learn more about marine life. You can also observe other aquatic insects, terrestrials and fish feeding patterns that you could only guess at if you didn't dive.

The more you observe your quarry, the better you will be able to catch them.
