Hey guys,
It's been really cool reading all the content y'all have posted so far. Coronavirus has me picking up new hobbies and I'd love to get more into fishing! I have an Ugly Stixx GX2 rod with a Penn Battle II 4000. I've caught a handful of catfish, bass, and crappie on various outings, but the days I don't catch anything are always so disappointing to me. However, after having gone fishing a couple times I know I want to learn all about it and continue the hobby even after all this is over.
I was wondering if anyone had advice on progression? As in how I should go about getting better at fishing? Should I be targeting specific species one at a time and learning the ins and outs etc. Any other comments or advice to help a new angler would be greatly appreciated! I'm here to learn!
I'm down in the Sugar Land area but am willing to drive 2 hours out. Limited to bank fishing for now but will be buying a kayak as soon as I can.
