Hello all, I'm new here and relatively new to being a serious fisherman. I've always enjoyed going fishing but never really had my own equipment and took my own time to go. Before, most of my experience was going with family or friends and using borrowed equipment.
Not too long ago a good friend of mine gave me an extra rod/reel (his gf complained he had too many haha) and took me fishing a few times. I'm 'hooked' now I guess you could say.
Being from southwestern Virginia, I grew up outdoors, so it may seem kinda of strange I am just now getting into serious fishing at 25..
Anyway I have been doing mostly trout fishing freshwater streams/rivers. Any tips?
Oh yea, and I did do the responsible thing and pick up my State Freshwater, Nation Forest and Trout licenses.. are there any others I should be aware of for inland fresh water fishing?
