and catfish. Thirteen years later, I finally attempted my luck at deep sea fishing. Finally, my dream came true one overcast fall weekend. During the fall, saltwater fish tend to stay closer to the top of the water and in shallow waters because of the warmer water temperatures. If the water and fish comply with the weather, then fishing during the fall in Florida will not let an angler down. The night before I began my fishing adventure, my family and I were sitting around a red-hot campfire.…

We stopped at the store to get us a snack. Then we set off again we had lots of fun on the way, but we finally got to the pond it took a little bit…

The type of crappie fishing tackle you use is a personal choice; it is important that you feel comfortable with it and you can get the "feel" to know what the bait is doing as it maneuvers underwater and you can detect the sometimes tap-tap light hit of a crappie. My pet rig is a six-and-a-half-foot spinning rod, medium action, fitted with an ultra light Mitchell 308 reel filled with 6lb. test monofilament. A spincast outfit is plenty good; even fly tackle in some specialized situations, a…

Everyone has a memorable experience in their life hood, for me it was when my father took me and my family fishing. It all begin on a Saturday morning my father had spent all week gathering supplies that we needed in order for us to use such as fishing rods, and lures. On that morning, my brother and I began by getting everything on to the truck that we would use to go fishing, while my father was calling his friend in order for us to fish on his ranch that was just outside from Denton county,…
