My name is Justin, I live about 10 minutes east of Albany and I'm just starting to get into fishing. I just picked up a Shakespeare Tiger Reel and Rod combo (cheap 7 foot, medium action rod) to get me started and honestly I'm a bit clueless when it comes to fishing. I'll be out at a few lakes in Averill Park, NY and out on the Hudson River. Definitely looking for tips and advice from anyone who could point me in the right direction when it comes to freshwater fishing.
Thanks guys!
