Welcome/Mission Statement

Thank you for visiting Fishing: A Basic How To Guide. My goal here is to be an outlet to teenagers or other people interested in fishing or do not know enough about it. Throughout the following weeks and months, I hope that you will begin to comprehend the basics of fishing and consider trying it for yourself!

It will become obvious that I have not mastered fishing. Being young, it is my goal to teach the basics, as I learned them not too long ago. I also plan to deliver them in understandable, simple terms and references.

I also plan to learn and grow through this blog, bringing you new and more complex fishing goodies as we both become better fisherman.

Lines straight,

Choosing the perfect fishing rod



We've all been at the store and looked at the vast range of (what looks like) similar rods. To avoid from being confused, there are only a few basic points you need to remember. First is the role length. The longer the rod, the more heavy duty it is. 
Here is a good example of a catfish rod. You can tell it is a catfish rod because of how long it is. Depending on the type of catfish, the rods can vary in length anywhere from 8 to 12+ feet. Remember: The longer the more heavy duty. Pictured below is an Ugly Stik made by Shakespeare, as advertised in the video above. These are good for smaller fish like large mouth bass.
