The easiest information obtained about fishing can be found online
in the largest fishing
directory in the world.
Fisherman from every
continent depend on a
common source for
fishing guides, fishing
reports, new gear,
fishing history or just
to log onto a fishing
forum through their
favorite fishing
directory. Fishing
has surpassed all other
hobbies as the number
one outdoor event that
captures our time and
money. Fishing
categories can usually
be disseminated with the
use of a fishing
directory. There are
four major methods of
fishing and all have
adamant endorsers who
seldom cross over to the
other three. Cane pole
fishing, spinning, bait
casting and fly-fishing
are the four most used
methods worldwide.
Fly-fishing is the
newest trend and
requires the most
practice and talent.
With a fly fishing rod,
a fly fishing reel and
fly line you can add
your bait which is
called a fly that has a
very small hook for
trout. There are flies
that land on top of the
water and don't sink
called dry flies. There
are flies that are
designed to travel
underwater like a
swimming insect that are
called wet flies. There
are larger lures for
saltwater fishing and
tournaments for the
largest fish caught on a
"fly". The use of a good
fishing directory can
yield fly fishing tips,
fly tying techniques,
gear and manufacturers.
Cane Pole fishing is the
most primitive of the 4
methods using a single
pole made of bamboo with
a line tied to the end
and a hook. In most
cases this was our first
experience of fishing,
catching blue gills and
bream. Cane poles are
inexpensive and
sometimes homemade using
other materials at hand.
Cane poles have also
been improved to be a
two-piece rod for easier
storage and
transporting. A red and
white bobber added to
the line increases the
entertainment as we wait
for the bobber to
disappear and the line
to race through the
water. Antique bamboo
poles have a subcategory
in the best fishing
directory. Spinning
reels with accompanying
rods are as much a
favorite to some as
General Motors are to
some automobile owners.
A classy open face reel
that has a bail that
initializes the casting
of the line and lure.
Spinning reels are less
likely to have a
backlash that ends in
line tangles. The
spinning rod and reel
can be used on saltwater
and fresh water. The
fishing industry has
also developed
micro-spinning reels and
rods for small fish and
more action for the
fisherman. Most of the
hundreds of manufactures
of reels have separate
categories in a fishing
directory. Casting
reels are the foundation
of mechanized fishing
reels. The reels have
been designed as small
as a thread spool to the
huge size of a small
basketball to
accommodate deep-sea
fishing behemoths of
1000-pound fish. The
disadvantage is a
casting reel has a
tendency to tangle the
line. This cuts down on
fishing time and amount
of fish caught. Some
professional fishermen
have mastered the
casting reel preferring
it to the spinner.
Websites featuring parts
for casting reels and
professional repair
shops list their sites
in the best online
fishing directory.
