How to Fish? For Beginners

[Bobby03]

By: Wiki
Step by Step Method:
1.Choose a location
2.Choose your bait, and your hooks
3.Choose the appropriate bait fishing method
4.Cast your line, or place it in the water and wait for a bite.
5.Wait.
6.Hook that fish.
7.Pull the fish in by pumping and lifting the rod vertically while simultaneously reeling.
8.Get hold of the fish by moving your hand from head toward the tail without get lanced by its fins, but if you move your hand against the grain, you'll get speared, ouch!
9.Remove the hook
10.Decide if you are catching and releasing or keeping the fish
11.Repeat the process
12.Also look for fish moving along the shoreline!

And don't forget the experience you first got a fish.

Well I got off to a bad start with point one when some farmer shouted 'OY Geroff moi land!!!'

 

I found a new spot and made it to point 5 when all of a sudden a couple of blokes from the EA came along and asked to see my licence, I showed them the list above and they laughed as they confiscated all my gear, I was then summoned to court and fined £2000 for my innocence

Yes I know where poster is but when I was checked by the EA I was in my back garden in Suffolk. To make matters worse they did not go the other side of the garden pond to check if that Gnome had a licence. Lazy gits.

No not at all, the Gnome must of read the post as he was catching the only Goldfish in the pond on a regular basis.
