1) Is there a cost for using Women Fishing dot com? None whatsoever.
2) Will this website help me teach my children how
to catch fish? Absolutely!
3) Do you cover catching various types of fish? Sure do.
4) I have been fishing for
a long time, using a spinning outfit. I've thought about trying fly fishing. Are there fly fishing subjects on Women Fishing
dot com? Yes, a considerable amount of time is spent on fly fishing.
5) I don't know anything about fishing.
Can I find out how to get started on Women Fishing dot com? Women Fishing dot com focuses on the basics, as well as more advanced
techniques. We also list items you will need to get started.
6) Do you focus on catch and release fishing or catch
and keep? We are proponents of catch and release, however, there is nothing wrong with keeping a few fish for the dinner table.
Wasting a resource is another issue.
7) I would like to become involved with a local group of anglers. Do you list women's
fishing groups here? Yes, we have a page dedicated to women's fishing clubs.
8) I have heard it is expensive to get
involved in fishing. Is this true? Like anything else, you can certainly spend a lot of money on fishing. However,
it is possible to buy a decent rod and reel, the necessary tackle, a box of worms, and a license for less than a hundred dollars in
most locations.
9) I would love to find a way to get my kids to spend more time outdoors, as opposed to watching television or
playing video games, but I'm afraid that if I take them fishing, and the fish don't bite, the kids won't want to go again. Is
there anything I can do to make sure they have a good time? Yep, make the trip fun by not focusing entirely on "catching fish".
Make that the "icing on the cake". Your kids will love being outdoors next to the water, whether they catch fish, or not.
It's the quality time with Mom that they will really value. Be patient with them if they'd rather be tossing rocks, or searching
for critters. That's a great way to spend the day, too!
10) I have searched for a local group of women anglers, and
come up empty. Is it acceptable for women to join men's fishing organizations? There are very few "men's fishing organizations".
The only reason men dominate the memberships, is that women have not been heavily involved in fishing until recently. In most
cases, you will be welcomed with open arms!
