This morning I visited the cottage my parents owned and we visited during the summers. It hasn't been used for a number of years, and is run down and in need of cosmetic repairs. I'm thinking I may spend some time fixing it up so we can use it this summer.
Anyway, its right on a lake and the fishing's good. I use to fish there with my cousin summers when I was growing up. I thought it'd be fun to start using it and to take the boys out fishing this coming summer. Other than those summers fishing, though, I'm not much of a fisherman.
...Sooo, I thought I'd ask advice from those of you who are avid or semi-avid fishermen.
1. The cottage has an aluminum rowboat and I thought I'd like to pick up a small engine for it. Any suggestions (cheap and dependable)
2. What tackle do you recommend buying (so I don't get stuck in the middle of the lake thinking, "Bummer! I wish I had a ______________")?
3. What's the best bait for catching bass? pickerel? shark? (jk)
4. How do you find where the fish are?
