[size 2]I would recommend a stop at library. Read up on different articles, also maybe buy a couple fishing video's and/or watch fishing shows. See how they hold pole, set hook, etc.[/size]
[size 2] Then it's trial and error. Fishing is not an exact science, I have gone out with the right pole, right line, hook and bait for catfish and pulled in trout![/size]
[size 2] Fishing is a crazy and fun thing to do. 16 years down the road of fishing and I can still be surprised what I pull up on the other end of my line. [/size]
[size 2] It's a good healthy past time and it realitivy inexpensive and intial investment.[/size]
[size 2] I have babbled long enough, last thought....[/size]
[size 2]" Take care of your equipment " Storage, maintenence and so on " and you will have your equipment for years![/size]
[size 2] I still have my original Zebco pole and reel from 16 years ago! I use it to catch live smelt[sly][/size]
