Let's Go Fi sh i n g ! Fishing can be relaxing and fun. Follow these on-the-water tips for a successful fishing trip: * Make sure you are comfortable in your boat. Load it evenly so it doesn't tip over when you're fishing. Secure your gear to the boat using straps or bungee cords. * Check your fishing equipment before you go. Bring your fishing rod and reel, hooks, bobbers, lures and bait. * Try different types of bait to see what the fish like best. Worms and corn are great baits to try first. You may also want to try a spinner or other type of lure. * Relax, be patient and enjoy the view from your humanpowered boat. 48 Pennsylvania Angler & Boater * September/October 2014 PFBC Facebook: PaFishandBoathttp://www.fishandboat.com
