Just ask any of the millions of fisherman who saltwater and freshwater fish and enjoy this sport today! fishing is not just about fish-during a fishing trip, families and friends relax together as they enjoy being outdoors and learning new skills. If you are looking for a new experience, love the outdoors, and looking for a inexpensive sport or pastime you should take a good look at learning how to fish. You will be surprised how much information is available on the Internet to learn to fish.

Please refer items 1-6 below, these are items you will need to learn to fish in freshwater. A good fish to target for beginners are Crappie. The Crappie can be caught in most freshwater lakes throughout the United States and Canada and takes no special skills to catch.I have identified some very simple fishing tackle below in items 1-6 that you can purchase for very little, to catch Crappie. The tackle I have identified can also be used to catch other fish like blue and perch.

#1 Purchase a fishing license. In Many states you can do this online."DONOT" go fishing without a license, the fines are very steep! Visit my blog at http://www.oldfishinghole.com/blog , or at http://www.oldfishinghole.com to get detail fishing license information for your state. You can also check out your state's Department of Natural Resources website link. 90% of all states have a website. You will need to look at your particular states regulations to see if you need to purchase a license. Chances are you do if you are over 16 years of age. When you purchase your fishing license make sure you pick up a brochure on all the regulations, and what speices of fish your state has to fish for, what the size, and limits are. Most places that sell fishing licenses will have this information. Of course if you purchase your license online you can just print the information from the website.

 

#2 Go to your local department store and purchase a inexpensive fishing rod and real combo, that has 4lb, up to 10lb test line pre-wound. Walmart usally has excellent choices you can purchase for under 30$. The spin cast combo is a great way to start your learn to fish experience. With spin casting tackle, you can put the bait or lure where the fish are. You can cast greater distances with more accuracy, work lures effectively, fish in deeper water,and handle larger fish more easily with this tackle. Spin casting rigs use a rod with a pistol-like grip and a reel that's mounted on top of the rod's handle. Line is released using a push button on the reel.

#3 split shot weights small as you can find.

#4 crappie Fish hooks (Number 6-8 size)

#5 A plastic or wood bobber very small, Sizes: 1-1/4", 1-1/2".You want the bobber to just barely sit on top of the water when bait up your rig.

#6 I recommend when you first start fishing to use live bait. Go to the local bait store and purchase red worms or crappie minnows. If you are a beginner it is best to use live bait because you don't understand yet how to fish artifical baits. If you start with artificals you may get frustrated and not catch any fish. When you fish with live bait even as a beginner you will catch fish. Good live baits to start with are crappie minnows,worms, and crickets. If you can't dig your own, you can find them in a sporting goods or bait shop. If you want to use minnows, catch them in or near the waters you want to fish. This prevents bringing new diseases or fish species into a river, lake, or stream. Return leftover baitfish to where you caught them. If you do not have time to catch your own bait you can also purchase your live bait selection at your local bait shop. You'll find everything you need at a fishing tackle or sporting goods store or online at Cabellas or Bass Pro shop. Also at your local bait shop.

Now that you've purchased your learn to fish equipment, you are ready to set up your rod with hook, line, and sinker and get to fishing. Tie your tackle rig on a #4--#6 hook using either a Palomar knot or a improved Clinch Knot. Attach 1 or 2 sinkers or fishing weights to the line, 6 to 12 inches above the hook. This weight will keep your bait or lure down in the water and will help swing it away from shore.

Well your ready to go fishing! The learn to fish information we have provided is basic in nature. If you want more detail with your learn to fish experience I suggest you look on the internet for a free fishing course. There is a ton of information available to help you learn to fish.
