I'm a newbie to fishing, and decided to join up. My dad and I have wanted to start fishing for a while, but just hadn't had time.
It was my dads 50th birthday today so I stopped by Bass Pro on my way home from work and picked up two Browning Midas black bass combo rod and reels, 6ft 6in, Medium Heavy, the guy that I talked to said that they were a really good combo. He also put 10lb line on them for free. I really like the feel of the rod and reel.
What kind of bait should we try first? Also what are some mandatory things I need to toss in the tackle box?
Thanks,
Shaun
