Fishing Rod Zebco
How to Fish by Ken Clark
As an avid fisherman, I find that fishing is the most relaxing recreation for me. I love the out doors and I enjoy the struggle of fisherman against fish. Most people think that fish are stupid. That may be but I find that they can be as finicky as your kids at the dinner table when it comes to what and when they eat.
Know your target species. This is more important than what tackle or bait you are using. I grew up fishing with a $15 Zebco fishing rod combo and I can not begin to tell you how many fish I caught on that pole. I used to tape the pole to my bike, throw in a few extra hooks and weight and head on down to the river or lake, which ever was closer. Knowing what I was going after was the key to my success or failure.
Know your tackle and baits. Although I said that knowing your species is more important than what tackle you use, you still need to know what fishing tackle to use from rod selection to what line to use. Although you might get lucky, you will probably have no luck using crawfish for bait when you are crappie fishing. Likewise, you probably will not catch a grouper on a trout rod and tackle.
Know your location. Although you can find many species in many bodies of water, some locations are much better than others. For instance a small lake that is teeming with bass is probably not going to supply you with an abundance of trout. You see, bass love to eat the trout. There are many things to consider when choosing where to fish and what to fish for.
Where do you learn to fish? Well you can learn from trial and error but this takes longer for success. I recommend that you 1) learn from your parents, 2) talk to the old timers, you know the ones around the fishing areas 3) talk to bait shop owners or 4) hire a guide. I can now purchase all my information on the internet.
