I am wanting to learn how to fish and have a few questions. Is this the right section for asking basic questions or is there a beginners section? My first question is about my basic setup. I fish from the shore on a large lake in Arkansas. Generally I set up a swivel on the end of my line with a small split shot above the swivel. From the swivel I run a 12"-18" leader line of clear monofilament with my lure tied to the leader. I generally use jigs, rooster tails, spinners, various crank baits. Is this a good general set up or should I just tie my lure directly to the line?
