Fishing Tips

The secret places and tricks of the trade are learned, earned and shared over the seasons at Good Hope. Here’s a tip, a lesson many of our guests have learned the hard way: when a fish wants to run, let him run! Many people call our reels “knuckle busters” and when you try to hold a fleeing fish, your knuckles may be “rapped”! You’ve been warned…

We estimate that 50% of fish are lost due to faulty knots. When the bite is on you need to be able to tie your knots quickly and error-free. Practice makes perfect. If you are interested in learning more abut knot tying, contact us for a free knot tying kit.
