Hi all,
Just joined the forum, and just got interested in starting hunting and returning to fishing.
I've been hunting exactly once in my life back when I was 17 or so (duck hunting with friends--didn't get anything). I used to fish quite avidly (lived within about a 2 minute walk to a stream with catfish and perch), but that stopped when I turned 16 and needed (by Ohio law at the time) to get a fishing license. The tackle was "legacy" but the license required cash I didn't have back then.
I'm already a shooter (two rifles--Ruger 10/22 and Mosin Nagant 91/30, and I plan to buy my first shotgun when I get paid at the end of the month). The tackle I had when I was a teen is long gone so I'll need to start acquiring that. I'll probably also want to buy a small boat, maybe a canoe (for ease of storage).
Any suggestion on getting started, places to go, etc. would be much appreciated.
