Howdy yall,
Grew up fishing lakes as a kid but never had to buy equipment, as I recall we always got the "kid kits" and some bait and we were set.
Now I look thru sporting goods stores and am a bit lost as too what I need.
I mostly just want to be able to toss a line into one of the rivers I drive by and possibly catch some dinner on the way down from the mountains.
I do not plan on being a full time fisherman, hunting and shooting are more my interests but fishing seems to compliment those things.
If I could get a bare bones, you need these things for sure list then that would be very helpful.
A little info on what size pole would be appropriate and how much I should look at spending for a basic setup (I don't want garbage I'll just turn around and upgrade in 2 months either ).
Thanks for any and all help, the people on this forum are truly fantastic
