| The Right Lure |
| Fishing lures are used to bait fish. Depending on the type of fish you want to catch, you will need the right lure. Fish generally bite a lure because they are hungry, they are protecting their territory, or they simply want to know what it is. Since lures can vary in size, you should keep in mind that not all fish will be attracted to one lure. You should have several sizes on hand so you can trade off when you need to. If you have fished in an area before, then you may have a good idea about which lures will attract the fish and which won't. But if you are fishing in a new area, you may need to try a few fishing lures before finding one that works. more |

| Planning a Fishing Trip with Your Family |
| Fishing trips with your family can be a lot of fun. In order to get the most from your next family trip, plan ahead in order to save time and reduce the stress of traveling and trying to catch fish. In addition to buying the appropriate fishing poles, you should also buy plenty of extra equipment so your tackle box has enough lures, weights, and floaters for everyone. Depending on the size of your group, you can lose a lot of equipment after one day of fishing, so stocking up on extra supplies is important. more |

| Using the Right Fishing Pole |
| The right fishing pole is necessary for you to be able to catch fish. Poles that are too long will not offer you enough control over the fishing line. Poles that are too short may snap easily when you are trying to reel in a fish. The right pole is usually determined by your height and the types of fish you want to catch. Larger fish will require thicker fishing line and a thicker fishing pole in order to stand the tension placed on the line. more |
