When it comes to getting away, there are few things better than a fishing trip.
As a matter of fact a fishing trip doesn't have to be considered a vacation in my opinion.
A fishing trip can be a one to three day excursion to your favorite river or to a neighboring state.
The point is that taking a fishing trip can be just what the doctor ordered to clear your head and have some fun.
A little piece of advice that I would offer anyone who considering taking a quick 1 to 3 day fishing trip is to not try something completely foreign to you, unless of course a guide is involved.
Going it alone and trying to catch a species of fish that you have little or no experience with can be a nightmare.
I've lived this nightmare and it's quite frustrating.
Fishing for a species of fish that you have little or no experience with can be quite a challenge, especially in just a couple of days.
When it comes to a quick fishing trip, the best bet is probably to stick with a species of fish and a body of water that you're familiar with.
That way there will be no wasted time, shopping, reading, asking for help, etc.
If you have familiarity with what you're fishing for you can concentrate on what's important...
the fishing and trying to catch a few fish.
A fishing trip can be a wonderful thing as long as you remember to stay with what you know.
Trying to learn new fishing techniques is just a few days can be like trying to cook Baby Back ribs with no experience.
The outcome can be something much less than desirable.
Sometimes fishing trips are best left to that which you have some experience with.
