Fishing Pole Set Up

What fishing gear you need for fishing pole set up (of course apart from the fishing rod) are fishing reel, test line, small bead, hook, sinkers and bobber stop.

Now, we come to the actual fishing pole set up. Start by attaching the chosen fishing reel to your fishing rod. Then making use of the reel seat, place the reel in it and tighten it. But ensure that you do not tighten it too much. Then let the fishing reel be spooled to your test line. In fact, you can even buy a reel, which has been already spooled with a test line. Next, thread the test line up in your fishing rods, through the holes in the rod. To ensure that you can attach rest of the equipments, keeping a lot of slack in your line once you thread it. Follow it up by slipping your bobber stop onto the test line. The most easily available and popular is the rubber stop. That looks like a grain of rice with a hole at each end which the test line is threaded through. This bobber stop is essential for keeping the bobber from sliding past the depth that you choose. Now, directly under the bobber stop, thread the small bead. This bead is crucial, that helps to keep the bobber stop from slipping down, in the situation of a fish being hooked and it pulls on the test line. Then slide your slip bobber up the test line. Next, through the eye of the hook thread the test line and then attach it to your test line. Follow it up by clipping 2 small split shot sinkers to the test line by using a pair of pliers. Then clip them around 10 inches above the the hook and an inch or 2 apart from the 2 split shot sinkers. And last but not the least, put the bait of your preference on the hook and there you are, all set for freshwater fishing. You can use a bee moth, cricket, earthworm or a minnow. But hey, you can go for other baits as well, you need not use just these.
