Process Essay: The Basics Of Fishing Parallels

Improved Essays
Fishing is a popular hobby in the United States and all over the world. Fishing requires: rod, reel, and bait. It requires a good amount of line to use when fishing. A good fisherman knows how to put line on a fishing reel properly. The first thing to complete is to gather the proper materials. The materials needed: a fishing reel, proper line, and a pencil or a line winder if available. If available, a portable line spooler and winder is a great tool to use. A pencil is the cheaper, easier way of doing the same thing. The next step to make this a quicker, easier task, is to feed the line through the guides of the rod and down to the reel.

The labeling would say something like: 6lb/150yds or 8lb/ 125. The first number is the weigh the line can handle, and the second number states the length that should be on the reel. Most are labeled around the spool for recommended length and how much weight the line can handle. If it isn’t stated then you may have to look up the recommend line type and how much to put on. When the spool is filled with the correct amount of line for what the real can handle, then cut extra line at the tip of the pole. This will save time feeding the line through the guides again. After this step is completed, then tie on the lure or hook so the fishing pole is ready to go when it is needed. As ice fishing comes up and summer fishing comes to a close, now may be the time to prepare rods for next year or even this year. With the proper tools and the right ability this task can be completed easily. Putting line on a reel can be a simple easy task if you know how to do it
