I know fuck all about fishing. Literally fucking nothing. I've done it once.
But a friend invited me and she gave me gave me a cheap 3m rod and a sabiki set and we went to the sea this weekend. We caught a few and I had a lot of fun just catching little fishies because I never did it before.
My main question is: if I'm trying sabiki fishing What do I need to be doing? I was casting like 10m from the dock, waiting 5 or ten minutes until bites and then reeling in. My friend was getting lots of bites and and took home a lot more, but we used the same bait. When I cast my bait for sabiki what do I need to do? We're both total novices. What should I do to make sure I do well?

Try reading the catalog next time.
A thread died for this.

Oh, yeah. I consult the other fucking thread for people new to fishing using sabiki.
Oh wait. where was the other thread on this topic?
Could it be... that topic didnt exist *scratches chin*
Sage and move on. Or I could just fuck up an unrelated thread.

Did you try jigging a bit? You could have simply been missing the school of fish.

Yeah. I think I might have just been to passive? I was throwing the rig and the fish would act up when I pulled the rig away. When I pulled up the rig they'd get more active but it was hard to get more bites. Should I sink the rig more next time?

Oh look an entire motherfucking thread dedicated to fishing. Even has "general" in the name. Oh wow. it's even on the first fucking page.
I hope you hook your own eyeball then fall off a pier into inch-deep water.

If I were you I would cast beyond where you were getting bit, let it sink and jig it through the strike zone.
