This page was intended for the beginning fisherperson. Included here is a little set of step-by-step
instructions on how to tie a hook, bait a hook, and cast your line.
Tieing the Hook
1)- Run the end of the line through the eye of the fishing hook.
2)- Twist the line 6 or 7 seven times and run the end through the loop that was created.
3)- Pull the knot tight and cut off excess line.
Baiting the Hook
1)- Take your vic...bait and hold it tight to keep it from getting away.
2)- In the case of the shrimp, run your hook through the head between the two black spots that you see.
Casting your Line
1)- Place a finger on your line to hold it and pull back on the bail, the little switch near the line, to release the line.
2)- Hold your pole back behind your head, still holding the line with your finger.
3)- Throw the pole forward, releasing your finger from the line.
NOTE- DO NOT LET GO OF THE POLE!
