Do not bite at the bait of pleasure till you know there's no hook beneath it.

When you see something you want, you better think twice. Often we don't think about the consequences of our actions. Although we start by getting what we want, there is often a catch that is less than desirable.

Be careful! Just like when a fish takes the bait at the end of the fishing pole, then ends up with a hook in his mouth, be careful when you see a good thing being presented to you. It might not be as wonderful as you think! Once you partake, there may be hidden consequences or high prices to pay that you were unaware of at the beginning.

Basically everything that is pleasureful has a hidden agenda. It's like a warning telling yoiu to becareful in the choices that you make, they might be good for the moment but in the long run the consequences ("hook") will get you.

it relates to taking care to investigate the possible results of something that just looks good and inviting before jumping in
such as a sexual encounter can lead to pregnancy or an std
a new drink you do not know whats in it can be very deceptive such as a long ice tea as it tastes like ice tea but is very strong which can lead to a lot of pain in the morning after a night with a few of them.
so the meaning means you should be careful with new things and understand the risks before doing them
and a meaning from a parent fish to his child to warn him against baited fish hooks

basically it means do your research and know what you are getting yourself into. like sex for an example it is full of pleasure believe me, but you can catch a disease even with protection if your partner has something. So make sure your partner is clean. a lot of times people do things based on instinct rather than full knowledge of the subject. so buddy, make sure you read the fine print in your life to keep you from making mistakes because half baked impulses. hoped i was of some assistance to your question. peace out and God bless.

It is sort of like, all that glitters is not gold. Just because at the time it might look good, feel good, doesn't mean it is good, and to take time to find out if it is, or isn't. That's what that quote means.
Got it?

i'm thinking it means whatever you do think of the consequences. if you have a one night stand, the hook could be that she is pregnant. i'm thinking it means consider that consequences
