Quick tip: Focus on the rhythm of the fish's movement. Some fish patterns can be predictable. Also, invest in a better fishing rod as soon as you can. The Fiberglass Rod and Iridium Rod make a huge difference because you can use bait and tackle to improve your chances.
Honestly, just keep at it. I was terrible at first, but now I'm snagging those legendary fish like it's nothing. It's all about getting the feel for each fish's movement pattern.
