You might be surprised to know that fishing can be a dangerous sport. Fishing can also have its rewards with relaxation being at the top of the list.

Bad weather, fishing tackle malfunctions, and snagged and tangled lines can cause a lot of grief if you haven't prepared ahead of time for such challenges.

Tangled lines are one of the most frustrating things you may have to deal with when fishing along banks that have a lot of brush and undergrowth. Take immediate action to get your line untangled if you've thrown your lure into a brushy area. If it's tangled on a small branch or twig sometimes the easiest thing is to break the snare off.

You may be forced to cut your line if the snagged line is out of reach or caught on a limb or log too big to break. Snagged and twisted lines can be frustrating if you are not careful where you flip your line as you are casting. A floating lure on a broken line can be a death trap for a hungry unsuspecting fish.

There are several items in your fishing gear that can have sharp edges. These can be hazardous if you are not careful. You can cut your self or get a hook stuck in your thumb while removing it from your catch. A necessary part of your fishing tackle is a first aid kit with medicated spray and peroxide, paper towels, cotton, band-aids, and other bandages.

Avoid running out of bait and having to cut your trip short by taking into stock how much bait you have left. If necessary divide your bait into halves, quarters, or thirds. A worm even if it's divided can still move so don't hesitate to use a split worm.

Prepare for the weather you will be experiencing during your fishing trip. Check the weather report and keep track of it daily. You will have a better idea of what clothes and fishing equipment to bring with you. This will ensure a better chance of having a nice comfortable trip.

Continue to monitor the weather, whether you are fishing from a boat or fishing along the shoreline. If a sudden storm comes up and lightning is starting to strike, head immediately to shore. Even on land, be aware of such conditions as darkening skies and flash floods.

Remember safety and preparation can mean the difference between a great fishing trip and disaster.
