River Fishing Etiquettes

Just in case if you are not aware of general river fishing etiquettes.
Below are some basics for any newbies to earn respects from others.

1) Be Courteous & Polite
- Always say Hi or strike some conversations with fella fishermen

2) Respect an Angler's Space
- minimum distance between anglers you do not know well: AT LEAST 8~10 feet
** for ease of casting
** safety
** respect

3) DONT crowd in
- DONT try to squeeze into pools which are packed already
- Keep walking down the river to find unoccupied pools
- Come earlier next time if you really want good spots

4) DONT Jump into Another Person's Spot
- Ask for permission if someone is about to leave or not before jumping in!
- Come earlier next time if you really want good spots

5) DONT Litter & Bring garbage home

6) Give Others Space When Fighting A Fish
- Pull out your line immediately when people call for "Fish on" unless you are 50 feet away from him/her

7) Walk/Talk Quietly Around Others

8) DONT STAND TOO CLOSE TO POOLS
- You will NOT catch fish by standing close to them!
- Practice your casts so that you do not have to stand right beside fish to catch them
- Fish will be spooked as soon as you can see them!
- Try NOT to fish from high banks of outer seam because it 99.9% means you will be standing too close to runs/pools to spook fish

9) Cast in sequence with others to avoid tangles
- Wait for your turn to cast!
- Keep your float at least 4 feet from others
- Learn how to cast accurately!

10) Relax & enjoy the experience!

See you guys on the river!
