The desire to get acquainted with new hobbies always requires some effort. We need to gain additional knowledge, sometimes pass qualifications and get the necessary equipment. It is fishing equipment that is one of the factors that affects the possibility of discouraging us from being active. What to look for when choosing the right fishing tools? A novice angler has many options to catch fish, and thus can get lost. Active people will certainly want a spinning technique that will allow them to fight predatory fish, and calmer people can try their hand at the float technique. It is the angler who decides what kind of fish he wants to catch, he must choose the right equipment. At the same time, at the beginning it is worth choosing the most universal set that will allow you to try different types of fishing.
Before we start completing the fishing equipment
Before you go fishing, it is worth getting acquainted with the places where you will want to catch them. In our country, we have laws that regulate amateur fishing. It is necessary to adapt to them in order to avoid the consequences of fishing regulations.
Currently, on fishing grounds belonging to the Polish Angling Association, it is necessary to have a fishing license and a fishing permit in a given fishing district. It is the counties that are governed by local regulations that define the boundaries of fishing grounds, allowed fishing methods, lures and groundbaits. There may be changes in 2023 and a fishing license may no longer be required.
Commercial fisheries usually do not require a fishing license. It will only be necessary to pay the entrance fee, with an extensive fishery it can be about PLN 60 per day. At the same time, it is an interesting option, which usually guarantees great comfort and attractive fishing and tourist infrastructure.
Fishing rod – the basis of every angler
There is no angler without a rod and it is the basic equipment of every angler. As a rule, it is good that the first fishing technique for a novice angler is the float method. It will allow you to better understand the behavior of the fish and teach you how to properly control the equipment in an accessible way. A fishing line, crank, float, hooks and weights should be selected for the rod. The crank is especially important here. This is the most complicated part of the angler’s equipment. The crank consists of many gears and mechanisms that help when fishing. Not only its durability and braking power are important, but also how difficult it is to maintain.
Other accessories and equipment
For interesting fishing you will also need bait and groundbait. The groundbait makes the fish swim closer to our fishing spot, and the bait should imitate food and tempt the fish properly. In addition, for pleasant fishing, it is necessary to equip yourself with a seat, a rod rest, a thermos, and in the case of a longer stay, a sleeping bag and a tent.
