FAQ

Are there any restrictions on when I can fish?

Yes, but make sure to use artificial light. Artificial lights are used by fishermen to attract fish. They are most effective after the sun sets, when fish are more active.


What is the correct length fishing rod?

The kind of fish that you are looking to catch determines the length of your fishing line. A 6'6' rod would work best if you are looking for smallmouth Bass. A 7'5" rod may be better if you are looking for largemouth bass.


To fish, you will need a Bobber

Yes. A bobber is used to keep the bait from getting away when fishing. The bobber has two parts: the float and the line. You attach the hook and line to the lure. Once the line is out, let go of it. You should not use a Bobber as the lure can sink into the water and make it more difficult for fish to bite.
