As a police sergeant and motor patrol supervisor, Robert Mehnert is responsible for making sure police on patrol are effectively doing their duty. When not working, Robert Mehnert enjoys fishing.
If you are new to fishing, you may be focusing all of your attention on your rod, reel, lures, and bait. Aside from those crucial ingredients, here are three accessories you should consider purchasing before your next trip:
1. Waterproof Boots. Wear waterproof boots to ensure that should you need to wade into the water, you can do so without getting wet.
2. Polarized Sunglasses. Aside from protecting your eyes from harmful UV radiation, a good pair of polarized sunglasses will greatly decrease the sun’s glare on the water. With this advantage, you may be able to spot fish.
3. Bug Spray. If you are fishing at a still or slow-moving body of water, expect mosquitoes. Bug spray will protect you from their annoyingly itchy bites, ensuring your focus stays on the fish.
