Spring Time Woohoo - Grab Your Fishing Gear
Fishing And Preperation
Here we are already in April and it's not too late to hit the lakes and rivers. Time to get out that fishing gear and get it in order and make sure new line is added to your reels. Okay, now let's make it last while we are at it and enjoy it more so grab that camping gear as well and take a few days relaxing and enjoying the trip.
It's never too late to go fishing and spring is a great time to hit the water as it is warming up and the fish are getting ready to spawn. This is the time of the year where I live in the southern US where the weather is changing and the trees are starting to bloom. As the dogwoods start having blooms then the fish are on the move and will hit about anything you throw at them.
Time To Hit The Water
Regardless the type of fishing you are into this is the time to get your gear and get to the lakes and have a great time. Just think about that large bass parting the water to knock your bait almost out of the water just to get to it, can you picture it? That is a great feeling to have a large fish on the end of your line giving you that fight of your life making you work hard to get it in the boat, or on the bank depending on how you are fishing.
February, March, and April are great times of the year here in the south to pack up and enjoy an outstanding fishing and camping trip, relaxing and getting away for a little while. For sure this is the time that you may hang that big bass, or mop up on those slab crappie, or even load up on the catfish.
What's Your Fishing Preference
There are several methods in fishing where everyone has their own preferences. For instance, using the bait casting reel, or the spinning reels and both are great and you will have a great time catching fish with either. My question is if you have tried the fly-fishing technique and if so have you ever hung that big fish with one of those? Wow, what a fight you will have on your hands getting a large fish in with your fly-fishing rod and reel.
Nonetheless, everyone needs to escape the everyday battle and rat race of work and get away and enjoy yourself. Be sure to include the family, or a friend and enjoy this adventure together. Besides, if you go by yourself and you catch that big fish and don't bring it back who is going to believe you caught it?
Fish on my friend and enjoy life and the great outdoors!!

I love fishing. I find it very relaxing. And get you dinner at the same time. Thanks for sharing Jen
Fishing is very relaxing and you have a lot of fun at the same time. Just to get out and enjoy yourself is great as well. Fishing does indeed put food on the table and is a healthy meal.
Happy to see you enjoy fishing and did it relaxing. Thanks for the comment. Stay safe and enjoy your weekend.
Hi Bobby. Thank you for wetting the appetite. I've never quite got to the fishing albeit I love the outdoors. i always got caught up with untangling lines for the children, they were never biting and I got lazy because there was always a fish shop close by. Most of our fishing in Australia is of the rocks/beaches and into the ocean. Great image at the top of the post.
Have a great day.

I have done a lot of untangling line in my time as well especially for my children. There have been many trips where I didn't get a bit but I enjoyed the outdoors regardless. There are many ponds, lakes, and rivers where I live and a lot of fish oppertunities.
Thanks for reading and the complement on the image as it does catch the eye. Stay safe in your part of the world!
One of my favorite things to do my grandpa would take me every day with him fishing and I have always loved it just tonight I was talking about getting my fishing license for the year great read thanks
Yes, fishing is a lot of fun and my grandparents carried me many times and was a lot of fun. I grew up fishing and enjoying life outdoors with family. Just writing this post has made me want to get on the lake.
I am happy to hear that you had the opportunity to spend time fishing with your grandpa. Those are memories that you will cherish forever. Thanks for reading and sharing a part of your life with me. Stay safe.
We are currently banned from going fishing here! Also banned is golf and a few other weird ones that don't seem to make a whole lot of sense at the moment. We have very tight laws on what is permissible and what is not in my part of the world.
Enjoy your fishing :)
Cheers
Melissa
Sorry to hear that but at some point things will get better then hopefully you can.
We are also limited to what we can do but for now where I live we can still go fishing. It does depend on the State you live in here where some you are not allowed to do anything.
Thanks for the comment and stay safe.
