When going out fishing, it's always a good idea to carry a fishing first aid kit to help ensure everyone is safe.
Unlike cast and retrieve fishing which requires continuous movement of the line, most new anglers start with stillwater fishing. Stillwater fishing (or still fishing) is a matter of putting your bait in the water and waiting for a fish to find it, making it one of the simplest and most effective fishing methods for beginners. Conversely, stillwater fishing may prove a bit more challenging when fly fishing as casting and retrieving the fly rod tends to disturb the surface. However, there are stillwater fly fishing techniques to help new anglers with the transition, especially when it comes to fly fishing for trout in still water.
