New from Milford
Message:
Hello everyone. My name is Daniel and I'm trying to get back into fishing after a VERY long lay off. I don't think I have fished at all in the last 10 years or so and that was back in high school when I was living in Wisconsin. I'm 27 and separated from the US Air Force in June 2011. I moved out to Connecticut to be with my fiancee, whom I met while I was stationed in Germany through a mutual friend. Being new to things out in Connecticut, I'm trying to get some gear. I have a very limited budget at the moment which isn't very helpful, but it is what it is. If anyone has any suggestions about what to get to start off, that would be great! I look forward to learning as much as I can getting back into fishing and how it may be different out here on the east coast from what we had back in the midwest. It wouldn't hurt to make a few friends while I was here as well. :) Look forward to meeting you all and learning as much as I can and hopefully land some big fish!

Welcome to the site! Getting good deals for your money on websites is the way to do it when you're on a tight budget. Ebay, Amazon, Cabelas, and a few others are the way to go. Having a PayPal account is very important too. Keep an eye on fishing reports here on the site so you can get to know which lures are and aren't working. If you need somebody to guide and teach you, I'm willing to help you out. I live in Bridgeport which isn't far from Milford, but don't have a car. If you send me a PM, we can work things out on communicating and picking me up to go fishing together. Good Luck!

Thanks. I've been scouting around the websites quite a bit and looking around here to see what kinds of stuff people are using. Also been looking on craigslist to see what's out there. Thanks for the offer to help out. That would be great! I just have to find some time. Schedule is pretty tight right now as well. I'll look at my schedule and see when I might be available and send you a PM and see if we can work something out. :)
