Fishing A River Effectively

By Trevor Kugler

Any of us who fish river and/or streams with regularity are always looking for the most effective way to do it. I don't know about you, but my normal method of fishing a river involves wading and walking. I walk along the river, crossing it as I go, and fish good area's as I move. I've always enjoyed fishing a river in this way, and frankly still do, but many times the water becomes too deep to cross or the brush on the bank is so overgrown, that I simply can't go any further.

Recently I stumbled across a solution to these types of problems, and not only was it a solution, but is was also the most effective way I've ever seen to fish a river. What was this solution? A personal boat. If you've never heard of such a thing, you should look into it. There are a few different kinds and the most convenient options are inflatable. I prefer either though kayaks or personal pontoons. They are both very affordable, incredibly durable, and amazingly effective for fishing a river or stream.

Imagine the convenience of being able to carry a boat with you in the trunk of your car, then simply inflating it when you want to use it? Then floating down your favorite river/stream, fishing the entire way. The amount of water that can be covered will amaze you, and the area's of the river that you will have access to will amaze you as well. You'll be able to fish for fish that receive much less fishing pressure than you could before. How do you think this will improve your catch rate?

Once I realized how effectively I could fish my favorite rivers with the help of a personal boat, I've never been the same. These little boats are truly the only way to truly fish a river effectively. You get to navigate down river, stop and fish the good looking holes and runs, then continue to the next area. Using a personal boat is the only way to fish a river effectively in my opinion.
