Learning How to Fish

Fishing is a way for people to get food. It is also a sport. Some people fish with their friends and family. This is how you fish.

First, you need a fishing rod. A fishing rod is a long pole. It has a kind of string connected to it. At the end of the string, there is a hook. Some people put plastic fish on the end of the hook. Other people put small fish or worms. They do this to trick the fish into biting the hook.

Then, you wait for a fish to get on the hook. If a fish gets hooked, use your fishing rod. Turn a part on the fishing rod to pull the fish closer. Then, you pick up the fish from the water. You get it off the hook.

Some people keep the fish for food. Other people let the fish go free.
