So I went fishing a few times as a kid. I seriously know nothing about fishing now. Today I took a rod to Mesquite City Lake and tried my hand at fishing for catfish. I had picked up chicken liver, so I put some on a treble hook and cast out. In my mind, I was expecting a nice relaxing sit while listening to the Cowboy game. Instead, I got hooked up on debris underwater on my first cast. I tried so hard to get unstuck but to no avail. I cut my line and took my rod (and what was left of my pride) back home since I didn’t have any more hooks.
Now I’m sitting on the couch looking at some kits for catfishing online. Do any of you experienced fisherman have any recommendations for what I should buy? I don’t need anything advanced. Just some basic required gear.
