A word to the wise: the piscatorial pursuit known as fishing is called
fishing and not catching for a reason. If you always keep in mind that
you're going fishing and not catching, you'll have a far better and
entirely more enjoyable time chasing finned critters around the briny.
That being said, here are some things you'll need to know if you're just
starting out.

You'll always come across nifty little items that you simply must have. Oh, you probably have no use for them, but you have to have them. Well unlike that dust-gathering book embosser, that brass gimbaled globe of the earth made from shell, or the shale imprint of a trilobite you picked up who knows where, the items I've picked below are — by and large — gadgets and gizmos that actually serve a purpose. They're also really neat.

It happens on the first Monday of November every year, and every year it
catches me and my partner Capt. Ed with too little time to get ready.
To be sure, we always make it out to the scallop grounds - wherever the
little critters may be - but that last week of October is always a rush
of dredges to mend, boat "stuff" to fix or change, and crews to obtain.
