At age eight, I caught my first sailfish in Costa Rica, at age eleven, I caught my first roosterfish in a kayak and at age fourteen I purchased my first boat. Dropping bait in the water helps relieve the stress put on me from daily life.

Finding the best bait for trout fishing in your fresh water adventures can leave most anglers puzzled especially when first starting out with their trout fishing experience. The fishing angler can choose from using an artificial lure that represents some type of food in the water sources to choosing live bait such as minnows or the good old fashion trout worm.

Many people have stress relievers, whether it be running, music, or even retail therapy. However, for me, nature is where I can be myself, the place I can forget about life’s problems and struggles. Although you can do many things in nature, fishing suits me the most. Fishing is calming, stress relieving, and overall therapeutic. Waking up at 4:30 in the morning is something few people will do no matter the reason. As often as I am able, I wake up an hour before sunrise. I get out of bed and…

Another way to prove…
