I am 40 years old, was born and raised in Iowa now living in Tennessee. As a kid my summers were spent at the river and various local "Farm Ponds" . In those days a zebco 202 and some night crawlers were all that was needed for many hours of fun and to put a meal on the table. I fished from probably the sumer of 1973 untill the summer of 1993 in Febuary of 1994 my Dad died and I quit fishing. Through a divorce and many ex girlfriends various moves and so on I lost all of my fishing gear.
Now that I live in the foothills of the smokey mountains and I have a ten month old daughter and a wife that loves to fish I would like to start this one time favorite hobby again.
The fishing times sure have changed since 1993. I live less than two miles from a Bass Pro Shop. I stopped in their fishing department the other day and was over whelmed by the selection of fishing rods, reels, tackle, and tackle boxes . Being that we just moved we don't have a lot of money but I would like to start somewhere. Please help me
