How to Fish
Fishing is a sport for some and a hobby for those who they like to spend the summer months out in the sun enjoying the water. If you've always wanted to fish and don't know how, you can achieve your goal in a matter of no time.
Things you will need:
- Fishing line
- Fishing rod
- Fishing lures
- Bait
- Fishing net
- Container for fish
- Purchase the items that you will need for your fishing trip.
- Pick out a good fishing spot. This may be in a river, lake or a pond.
- Put the bait on your fishing line with the lure.
- In your dominant hand you will hold your fishing rod.
- Hold your rod to the side of you and you will need to grasp the pistol grip.
- Using your thumb you will push on the button on your reel. Make sure that you keep your thumb on this button.
- Bend your casting arm at the elbow and raise your arm until you have reached it at eye level.
- Bend your wrist forward and follow the motion of moving your arm and rod toward the water.
- Release your thumb from the button once you rod is at eye level. This will allow your fishing line and lure to go into the water.
- Begin slowly retrieving your line by reeling it in toward you.
- Let your line rest in the water to see if any fish are biting. You will know when a fish is biting the line because your bobbin will be pulled under water. If you see the bobbin get pulled under water start reeling in your line.
- Store any fish that you catch in the container you have purchased.
