English with a fishing rod

  Date: 20. July 2025 Author: Filip Bielarczyk   Some fish, like catfish or eels, come alive after sunset. Night fishing has its own magic – the water is calm, the air cool, and everything feels more peaceful. I always bring a flashlight, warm clothes, and a stronger rod. Summer nights are my favourite time for this – clam, quiet, and often surprisingly productive.

In this post, I will share some simple fishing methods that hove worked well for me.   1. Float fishing This is my favorite method. I use a small float, a light sinker, and a worm or corn as bait.

Date: 5. June 2025 Author: Filip Bielarczyk Two rivers hold a special place in my fishing adventures: the wide, gentle Narew and the smaller, livelier Orz. 1. The Narew River  is broad and slow, offering many peaceful spots where the water hardly moves. I love fishing there at dawn or dusk, when the river seems half-asleep. Bream , roach, and pike are common catches. My favourite place is by a small bridge near my village. Sometimes I fish with a feeder rod  and groundbait ; other times I float fish  with corn  or worms . 2. The Orz River , by contrast, is narrow and fast-flowing. Its waters are clean and perfect for spinning . Perch  are my usual catch there, and I enjoy using small  lures like spinners  or soft rubber fish .

Even if we catch nothing, we will share sandwiches, laughter, and the simple joy of being outdoors. ...

It is flexible yet strong enough for perch, pike, and even carp. 3.       Hooks and sinkers – I keep hooks of various sizes. Small ones work best for fish like roach or perch. I also carry small lead sinkers to help my bait sink to the right depth. 4.       Floats – A float is a fisherman’s eye in the water. I prefer small plastic floats – bright, simple, and very effective. 5.       Bait...
