Not Sure How to Get Started Fishing?
I enjoy the outdoors and I love the water, so fishing always sounded like a lot fun to me. But I was a little intimidated to try it. I wasn’t sure what equipment to use or where to go. But after hearing about all the fun my friends have fishing, I finally decided to cast my line, and I quickly learned just how easy fishing really is!
The great thing about fishing is that anyone can do it! All you really need to start is a pole, a line, a hook, and some bait. You don’t even need to buy your gear! With the Fishing Tackle Loaner Program, you can borrow all the gear you need. Or you can stop by your closest outdoor sports store — they are sure to have knowledgeable staff that can help you find the gear you need. As for bait — worms, small insects, and minnows are all great choices. You can find these at a bait shop, or you can catch them yourself. Just be sure to keep the bait fresh, and make sure you bait the hook correctly.
Not sure where to go to fish? Don’t have a boat? No problem! You can fish from shore at a nearby lake, river, stream, or pond. WaterWorksWonders.org can point you to the perfect place. Just use the location search to find great fishing across the nation.
So don’t let your concerns get in the way of a wonderful experience. Just browse the site, grab some gear, and get fishing!
