Selecting Your Freshwater Fishing Gear
Many of us preferred leisure activity; recreational anglers outnumber participants in most other outdoor sports. Successful anglers mix patience, skill, finesse, and sometimes brawn to land their catch. Having the right equipment makes it easier to achieve success and enjoy the sport.
Fishing offers a seemingly endless range of experiences, from the simplicity of a cane pole with canned corn and doughballs on a farm pond, to high-energy, technology-laden bass fishing tournaments that send professional anglers, rich with sponsors, powering after lunker large mouths. The types of fishing that you try, along with the venues you choose, determine the gear that you need. What works in one spot, for one species, may not work down the bay, up the creek, or for another kind of fish. Regardless the types of fishing you try and the waters you frequent, certain basic criteria hold true.
Fishing Rods, the Essential Tool
In its essence, a fishing rod or a fishing pole is a stick used to dangle a string that terminates in a hook used to catch fish. A modern fishing rod is generally a more sophisticated casting tool fitted with line guides and a reel for storing line. Fishing rods vary in thickness, flexibility, and length, and can be 2 to 20 feet long. The longer the rod, the greater the mechanical advantage in casting.
A fishing rod also extends the angler’s reach and leverage. Essential to casting and presenting the bait or lure to attract fish, the rod absorbs the shock of a fish striking and helps set the hook and play and land the fish. Rods also hold the reel and guide the line on and off the spool.
Rods are generally fitted with guides, wire loops that direct the line to the tip-top, the guide at the top of the rod. Grips are the part of the rod that you hold in your hand, usually made of synthetic EVA foam, or cork on good casting rods. The seat holds the reel, usually using some form of screw ring or lock device.
Use spin casting rods for active styles of fishing where you frequently cast and retrieve the bait or lure. Fly fishing rods are long, thin, flexible, and lightweight, designed to cast a fly usually made from a few wisps of fur, feathers, and foam tied to a hook. Conventional spinning rods are heavier and suited to fishing for larger fish such as striped bass, steelhead, and salmon.
Regardless the type of fishing you enjoy, match your rod, reel and tackle to improve your chances of making a catch. For novices and casual anglers, a prepackaged combination of rod, reel, and tackle enables you to spend more time actually fishing.
Fishing Reels Store, Deploy, and Retrieve
Fishing reels store, deploy, and retrieve fishing line. They increase your mechanical advantage to handle strong fish and have a “drag” system used to pressure a fish during a fight. The first American fishing reel was invented around 1820, a bait caster that quickly became popular. Bait casting reels store line on a revolving spool and are mounted above the rod. Their spools sit perpendicular to the rod and range in size from compact to massive multi-speed offshore saltwater reels. They require a bit more technique when casting to avoid backlash and tangled lines.
- Spinning reels are the easiest for most anglers to use and are suitably robust for most freshwater fishing. They have a fixed spool set below and parallel with the rod and were originally designed to throw artificial flies and lures to trout and salmon. The fixed spool solved the backlash problem and later models proved sturdy enough to handle larger baits and larger catches. Spinning reels are an excellent choice for light tackle and easy to use by casual and beginning anglers.
- The spin cast reel addresses the bait casting reel’s backlash and reduces the line twist and snaring sometimes encountered with spinning reels. Traditionally mounted above the rod, the spin cast reel—sometimes called a closed face spinner--is fitted with a metal cup and an external nose cone enclosing the fixed, parallel spool.
- Fly casting reels are relatively simple and serve more to store the line than to mechanically assist playing the fish.
A rod and reel work together to form a system. Choose a reel is to match the rod you’ll be using. Buying a rod and reel combination can be a wise shortcut to getting yourself out on the water catching fish.

Boating is one of the most enjoyable ways you can spend time with your friends and family. And if you take care to bring along the right food, drinks and other essential provisions, you can make sure your unforgettable day won’t be tarnished by an easy-to-prevent problem such as a hungry teenager or a sunburned sister. All it takes is a little preparation, and your boating day trip will be remembered for all the right reasons. Here are Some Points that you need to do while you are planning for Boating Day Trip:
Make sure your boat has the proper safety equipment for everyone on board. That means a properly fitted Life Jackets for everyone on board. For day trips, those orange jackets are okay for adults, but make sure all children (and anyone who will be participating in watersports) have a jacket that fits. It’s a relatively small investment that will give you the peace of mind to relax and enjoy the day. And, it’s one of the first things the local boating authorities will check if you get stopped for any reason on the water.
There’s something about the sun, fresh air and exercise that will stimulate the appetites of everyone on board. Make sure you bring along a variety of snacks tough enough to survive being tossed about during the day. Because of the moist environment, this is also a good time to spring for individual serving sizes for the kids’ foods. Don't carry heavy Meals like Roti and all. You can Carry light things like sandwich and other thing. They will eat more than you think!
Drinks are another area you definitely want to plan carefully. Have plenty of water and sports drinks. Go light on the sodas and energy drinks because those will go first and won’t help with hydration during a day out in the sun. It’s a good idea to keep the water in several convenient spots on board, so everyone grabs those instead of the other options. And be responsible when it comes to alcoholic beverages. That goes for the captain, crew and passengers.
Besides your provisions for hunger and thirst, probably the most important thing to pack is sunscreen and lip balm. Bring plenty so you can reapply throughout the day. Swimming and toweling off takes off your UV protection, and you need to put it back on frequently. Kids (and adults) may fight it, but a quick application of sunscreen can prevent a very uncomfortable evening and all the attending long-term affects.
If you’re out in nature, you will eventually have to deal with bugs and dirty hands. Make sure you have plenty of insect repellent (particularly if you’re going to beach the boat) and hand sanitizer for tidying up before eating all those snacks.
Be sure to bring along extra swim suits, towels, water shoes, hats and sunglasses, and a change of clothes for the ride home. Somehow, you always need more than you anticipate. Better to have to it just in case. If you’ve ever ridden home from the lake in wet trunks, you probably already know this one.
A little preparation goes a long way, so think it through and make a list. It will make your day on the water that much more enjoyable for you and the rest of the crew. If you are Planning for One Day Boating Trip you can hire a Yacht or a Boat from Navnit Marine. We are Leading Boat and Yacht Dealer in Mumbai, India.

The Indian Coast Guard and State Law Enforcement agencies require and/or recommend different Types of life jacket's for different applications. Make sure you are aware of the requirements for your state before you select your life jacket. While Buying Boat in India you should be aware of various Life Jackets and its applications. You also have to keep keep life jackets for Safety in your Boat and Yachts.
Most adults need an extra 7 to 12 pounds of buoyancy to keep their head above water. For a list of minimum buoyancy for each type of life jacket.
Offshore life jacket
This life jacket is designed for extended survival in rough, open water. It usually will turn an unconscious person face up and has over 22 pounds of buoyancy. This is the best life jacket to keep you afloat in remote regions where rescue may be slow in coming
Near shore buoyant vest
This "classic" life jacket comes in several sizes for adults and children and is for calm inland water where there is chance of fast rescue. It is less bulky and less expensive than an offshore and many will turn an unconscious person face-up in the water
Buoyancy aid
These life jackets are generally considered the most comfortable, with styles for different boating activities and sports. They are for use in calm water where there is good chance of fast rescue since they will generally not turn an unconscious person face-up. Flotation aids come in many sizes and styles.
Throwable device
These are designed to be thrown to a person in the water. Throw able devices include boat cushions, ring buoys, and horseshoe buoys. They are not designed to be worn and must be supplemented by wearable life jacket. It is important to keep these devices immediately available for emergencies, and they should not be used for small children, non-swimmers, or unconscious people.
Special use devices
Special use devices include board sailing vests, deck suits, pullover vests, work vests, some hybrid life jackets, inflatable life jackets with ISAF/ORC harness and others. They are only appropriate for specific uses or conditions.
Inflatable Life Jackets
Inflatable life jackets rely on inflatable chambers that provide buoyancy when inflated. Uninflated, inflatable life jackets are less bulky than inherently buoyant life jackets. The specific type of life jacket is determined by characteristics such as its amount of buoyancy, its in-water performance and its type of inflation mechanism. To understand the details of a life jacket, read the life jacket label and owners manual. All inflatables contain a backup oral inflation tube (which also serves as the deflation tube).
