>>2272508depending on where you are its really easy. If you live by the coast/ocean use meat and just toss your line into the surf and something will eventually swallow your bait. If your in the hearland/interior such as I am it depends on what species your fishing after. I recommend if you want something that is easy and only requires patience and some meat bait along with a handful of poles and trebble or circle hooks get into catfish fishing. Set a couple of rods up over a dropoff or deep section of a river or lake and you will pull in all sorts of catfish.
