What is the best bait and hook for bullhead?

I've tried fancy catfish baits on these devils, but honestly, up here in Washington, nothing works better than good old worms or nightcrawlers. Use a big hook: 4 or larger. That helps cut down on swallowed hooks. Fish deep (10 - 20 feet) and on the bottom, which has the added benefit of helping to keep other fish off your line. I use a small egg sinker above a swivel, to which is clipped a 1 to 2 foot leader to the hook. That lets me cast pretty effectively, but doesn't produce drag when the fish mouths the bait. They shy away from that.

They'll swallow a lot of hooks, so I like to have several of those hook-and-leader sets made up in advance, so I can just snip one off and fish on.

In my experience, bullheads often don't signal their presence at all, even after they've gobbed the hook. You start reeling in, and you've got dead weight on the line. You think it's a ball of weeds until the fish comes in sight of the dock, boat, or shore, at which time he wakes up and starts thrashing madly.

Anyway. Worms. In my experience. nothing works better.

How does Barometric pressure affect fishing?

When the barometric pressure is high (usally above 30.15) the fishing is usually bad. When you have a falling pressure the fish are usually more aggresive at this time and this would be a favourable time to fish. Also when you have a steady pressure anywhere from 29.90-30.10 this is a good time to fish as well. This being said when the pressure is rising or holding steady above 30.15 you might as well hang it up and stay home with the wife. If the pressure is falling and the bad weather hasn't reached you yet, then as a good friend of mine Brad Paisley said once " I'm gonna miss her."

What bait to use for river fishing?

The saying is "Match the Hatch". Look around at the insects that are out at that time and try to match the look.

Keep it fairly small. It really depends on the river. Large and deep or more shallow. Small minnow sized baits will work, as well.

Let the bait flow naturally past rocks (fish hide behind them) or swim it like it's hurt (they like the easy prey).

Can you use fishing line as a bow string?

Most fishing line is much stronger than common household string. Fishing line comes in many different sizes or "pound test" ratings, ranging from less than 1lb test to well over 100lb test. This rating indicates at what pound of pressure fishing line will break at. So, if you have 17lb test line then it should break around 17lbs of pulling pressure. Keep in mind that the test ratings are sometimes not 100% accurate and lines can break slightly below, right at, or even a bit more than the indicated rating on the package.

How do you take reel off fishing rod?

Rod and reel combinations have several ways that they are fastened to each other. Salt- and fresh-water reels typically fit in a reel seat by having the lower tab put into a slot. The reel nut is then lowered by screwing in in the right direction to secure it over the upper tab of the reel seat.

Cork rods have cork-based tape wrapped around the bottom of the rod. Reels are fastened with reel clamps. A half-circle fits behind the rod, the reel sits on top. Long screws are run through the clam into the reel seat. Alternately, hose clamps are used to secure the reel foot to the reel.

In some inexpensive fresh-water rods, a nut and bolt fit through a flat plate. The reed is put into a slot in the reel, tipped into placed, the flat plate is put over the upper reel tab, and the screw is turned to secure the reel in place.

Fly reels are mounted on rods using broad rings that pressure-fit in place over the upper or lower reel foot, depending on how the reel is mounted on the rod.
