Fishing Basics

Fishing Basics Fishing - Just the Basics I've been fishing for over 50 years and even more frequently in the last 10 years; during this time I have learned a lot of countless things about fishing in general. The most important is that you can never know it all. Even a novice can show an old timer a trick or two.

And now, with a complete ban on lead fishing tackle looming on the horizon, the entire fishing industry may well be on verge of going by way of the dodo bird. Our heritage is beginning to feel more than just a little persecuted! CHEZ 106 FM57's Jeff Brown thoroughly enjoys bucking the system, and has undoubtedly ruffled a few feathers in the process.
