What would you tell a first time angler going out for the first time to fish for Bass or Trout? <br>Start from the tackle store and take them to the shore or rental boat.<br>As a group we can start a Checklist in the following categories to assist new and first time anglers. Keep cost in mind low end to high end.<br>Rod<br>Reel.<br>hooks<br>line<br>sinkers<br>live baits<br>plastics<br>jigs<br>license<br>etc?<br><br>This could be a long one, the support is appreciated. <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>Booyaa To Ya'!<br><A HREF="http://www.fishingclothes.com " target="_new">http://www.fishingclothes.com </A> <br>Romero

HEY BRAH, I'M NOT A LICENSED GUIDE BUT I LIKE TO TAKE PEOPLE OUT TO DO SOME BASS FISHING. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED. I WILL PROVIDE ALL THE NECESSARY TACKLE, I ONLY HAVE TWO RULES ON THE BOAT NO ALCHOHOL AND ESPECIALLY... NO ATTITUDE. I DON'T FISH LIVE BAITS, NOT TO SAY THAT I'M AGAINST IT. IT'S JUST THAT I FISH TOURNY'S WERE ARTIFICIALS ARE THE RULE SO THATS WHAT I FISH.<br><br>

I live in Michigan and rarely have trouble getting them from my mom and pop bait shop around the corner from my house. <br><br>I have found a site in Minnesota that sells them wholesale but I am still looking for other locations closer to home.<br><br>Leaches are fun to fish with, give your buddies a good scare and are good for bass and walleye. Domestic leaches do not draw blood but will stick to you. I never leave them on more than a few seconds.<br><br>I like to drop them in front of a structure where I think a bass is hiding and let it drop to the bottom then drag it across the bottom of the sandy lake with short jerks or a slow crawl.<br><br>75% of my hits are when my leach is dropping. <br>if you like i will post sites when i find them<br><br><A HREF="http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/MESS6438/" target="_new">http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/MESS6438/</A> <br>Lookie See what the kids are up to.<br>Dave T.

A lot of good posts but if you don't want to pay for the trip for a week or more you had better take some good sun blocker. I found a guy that did not protect himself from the north. He was verry red after a full day in the sun. he ended the day at the emergency room with sun poisoning. he survived, but was in pain for about 3 weeks. big lesson is hear. Make shure your skin will take the sun as once you are fishing you won't think about it as your mind will be on the task at hand, Fishing.<br><br>Texas gulf cost fisher.
