If you want to catch fish on secluded lakes and streams, canoe fishing may be a good option for you. A fishing canoe can give you the opportunity to enjoy a relaxing day on the water and get some upper-body exercise as you paddle.
These lightweight vessels are very portable with the use of a roof rack or trailer, so they are ideal to use for exploring different fishing spots. However, there are some canoe fishing tips you should know about before paddling off to try fishing from a canoe for the first time.
The most important canoe fishing tips to remember are the tips that will keep you safe on the water. Consider taking a boating safety course prior to your first canoe fishing trip because each state has a specific set of safety laws that recreational paddlers and boaters are required to follow. The best canoe trip is a safe canoe trip!
