Winter is now a memory. Summer is at the height of its splendor, with the typical hot days of August. Many will choose the sea for their holidays and, thanks to the good weather, they will certainly try to go fishing. When?

English fishing: advice and the best equipment
In sea fishing, over the last twenty years, we have witnessed a progressive increase in fishermen using the Bolognese rod, the undisputed queen of ports and reefs.

Autumn, the first cold weather, trout in the pond. It would seem like a cliché or perhaps taken from a fishing book. In reality it is a simple consequence of the meteorological change taking place in October, the month in which we enter the heart of autumn.

The arrival of the autumn cold brings about several changes in the life cycle of fish. Prey such as carp, which live in lakes and carp fisheries throughout Italy, experience an increase in appetite before entering hibernation.

It can be practiced from the cliff, in the port, from the beach, in the canal mouth, so it is a specialty that we could define as "multitasking".
