It’s great that you’ve decided you want to learn to fish. However, there are several ways of learning, the hardest being trial and error. It would be better to find an instructor one-on-one lessons.

1. Let’s talk seasickness

Ther’s just nothing worse than ruining your fishing because of seasickness. Most medicines such as Bonine would be fine. Even experienced fishermen are known to take a few days in the rough. Take one before going to sleep, another when you wake up and a third before boarding.

2. Buy a reference book

There are a lot of good books that are available in bookstores and online. The book should give you instructions in addition to terms and definitions. There may be some things you may not immediately understand but you should know anyway. For instance, learning how to tie different types of knots. This knowledge will be invaluable for other purposes throughout your life.
