lol..You have to match the rod and action with the line weight of the bait/lure youre using. I had to practice in the front yard for a while til I got the hang of casting with a casting reel.
Yeah, thats their camoflage. Their color pattern will match their environment. And they can change their pattern pretty fast!
When you pull up an angry giant squid (up to 20lbs), theyre red, sometimes flashing red. REALLY MAD and squirt ink all over the place We would have ink wars on the boat..lol
But when they die, they turn white.

See this sounds like fun! And I am gonna youtube this about squids turning red LMAO!

Fly fishing....not so much my cup of tea. I cast, and the lure would go a completely different direction than what I intended (sometimes, the line wouldn't even go out at all). Then the line would get all tangled/snagged and I didn't know what was going on. I tried to reel and give the pole a little action, and the pole didn't seem to like this very much. I got

by a damn fishing pole lol
