catching dinner - tips and tricks

Aphorism Alert:  Never measure your fish. Fish will continue to grow long after being caught, as long as you don't know their correct length and weight to begin with. Conrad Fjetland.

Fishing
catching dinner - tips and tricks

~ listed chronologically, as posted ~
 

Please note I could really REALLY use some advice on how to successfully catch fish from you. It is rather embarrassing to be out here this long with so few fish to show for it. Fish do not fear me!
 

Email your Fish Stories and I will post them. I'm not great (nor even good) at fishing so I started this topic to receive advice. Please help. I love fish chowder but that takes more than potatoes, scallions, garlic and cream because without fish it is just plain stew.
