1. Probably the most important item of fishing tackle is your fishing rod. You'll need to make sure that yours is comfortable enough to use all day, and that it is the right weight and length for you, and the sort of fishing you're doing.

2. Fishing Reels and fly reels are also important. Depending on the sort of fish you're catching, you might want to be able to feed your line by hand, or by using the handle on the reel. Can you use your reel to land a fish even with gloves on, or when your hands are cold and wet?

3. You'll need different sorts of fishing line depending on what you're fishing for. Bigger fish will need a stronger line than smaller fish. You might want to set up several rods or fly reels so that you have the right sort of reel and line no matter what sort of fish are available.

4. Waders are essential if you want to get more involved in your fishing, and actually stand in the river to catch your fish. It's important to choose a good fitting pair that are comfortable, and will keep you warm all day.

5. If you're going fly fishing, then flies are essential. No matter whether you buy flies, or start fly tying, you'll soon learn which work best for the waters you fish in.

6. A good sturdy tackle box will keep the smaller items of fishing tackle, such as your bait and accessories safe. You're much less likely to lose something, or discover that you've damaged something if it's stored safely in a tackle box when it's not being used.

7. Having the right clothing will make fishing more enjoyable too. You'll definitely want to make sure that you stay warm and dry. In addition, if you're wearing waders, you'll want to make sure that you have all the flies and accessories you need with you so that you don't have to keep going back to the bank. A decent fishing vest will have numerous pockets that will help you carry all you need.

8. Your fishing boots will need to be comfortable, and keep your feet warm and dry all day. They'll also need to have plenty of grip so that you can climb up and down muddy banks without falling over.

9. Fishing bags will be able to hold all your fishing tackle and your fishing box, so that you have less to carry when you're going to or from the bank. You might also want to take food and drink with you too.

10. Don't forget that having a net is a good idea, so that you can easily land all the fish that you catch, and can either decide to let them go, or to take them home.

Now you know what you really need to go fishing, have you got everything you need?

How To Spool New Fishing Line On Reels

Having fresh fishing line on your reels not only ensures you will be ready for when you finally hook a trophy fish, but will also help you enjoy fishing more as it won't be full of twists. As simple as this task may be many fishermen see spooling new line as a hassle and avoid it. For fisherman using a super line such as FireLine having fresh line really isn't a concern, but for users of monofilament or fluorocarbons fresh line is really a must.

The key to properly loading a fishing reel with new line is that it must wrapped on the reel the same direction it was wrapped on the spool from the factory.

When respolling new line on a spinning reel first strip of the old and dispose of. If a super-line is being used first spool up with about 10 yards of monofilament to prevent slippage on the spool of the reel. Then tie your choice of super-line to the mono. Don't forget to pass the line through a few guides of the rod. When spooling monofilament you may simply tie it to an empty spool. Next observe the direction your fishing reel will wrap the line and orientate the factory spool so that it will be wrapped the same direction. Once this orientation is determined simply lay the factory spool on the floor. Now simply reel the new line while holding the pole and adding some line friction with your other hand. The new line should be wrapped to within 1/8 of an inch from the top the spool. If too much line is put on the reel you'll have over run problems when casting.

When spooling a baitcasting reel a tag end of about 10 yards monofilament should once again be used to prevent super-lines from slipping on the reel spool. Be sure to pass the new line through at least a couple of guides on the rod. Next orientate the new line spool so that the line goes on to your reel the same way it comes off the spool. Typically the spool of a baitcaster rotates towards the user so this means the spool holding the new line should be held so that it unwraps towards the reel. Hold the spool with a pencil and apply some resitance while reeling. The new line should come within about 1/8" of the top of the spool on the reel.

That's all there is to replacing old fishing line. A very simple task that help ensure a big fish doesn't get away while helping eliminate frustrating casting problems due to old fishing line.
