Taking up fishing



Was thinking of giving this a go in my spare time for summat different to do.

My dad reckons I should use liquorice as bait as he used to catch all sorts when he used this particular technique, what do you think?
Are you going sea or freshwater?

Seems a strange choice of bait, not sure how successful you'd be. Think your dad is is talking shit mate.
 
I can vouch for liquorice, it works with most fish but if you really want to take up the hobby get along to Derwent Reservoir and book a lesson, get them to teach you how to fly fish, better way of getting a bit of excersise than bait fishing
 
I pulled a fish's lips clean off its head when I attempted fishing. I didn't know I was meant to reel it in slowly so went full tug-of-war on the bastard. Ended up with a pair of lips hanging from the hook. Sorry fish.

Hope this helps.
