Tip
Tip: No surface activity does not mean no feeding; keep fishing subsurface
How to do it: If no fish show on the surface, keep fishing just below it, because fish may feed subsurface without showing noses
Mistake it fixes: Stopping when no fish rise
Why it works: Subsurface feeding is often invisible. Fish can feed just below the surface for long periods without ever breaking it.
When it matters most: Trout fishing
