Fishing is a inexpensive activity you can spend some quality time with your family. Just ask any of the millions of fisherman who saltwater and freshwater fish and enjoy this sport today! Fishing is more then just a sport, it provides quality time for you and your family and is a great stress reliever, even if you are serious angler. On a different note try it yourself, it is easy to learn to fish at any age. There is so much learn to fish information and free fishing courses available on the Internet today.

Here's what you'll need to learn to fish in freshwater: I am recommending you start your learning to fish process by reading or find fishing information on the internet about the freshwater fish called the 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! If you visit my site

http://www.oldfishinghole.com

you can get the latest fishing license information for your particular site. Also visit my blog http://www.oldfishinghole.com/blog for more detail information. 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 Purchase a inexpensive fishing rod and reel with 4-to 10lb test line already wound. You can purchase a rod and real combo that will already have line installed for under 30$. I personally like the spin cast combo and recommend this combo as a good starter rod and reel combo. 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 You can select live bait or fishing lures but I recommend using live bait when you first start. Go to the local bait store and purchase red worms or crappie minnows. For a beginner, live natural bait such as worms, minnows, crickets, and other insects is a good option. 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.
