If I were just starting out without internet fishing sites, I would get my information from books, magazines, and tackle shops.
As far as specific spots, I have learned how to fish them by trial and error. I don't think that even by trial and error, I could have learned how to fish the canal so quickly without the help of the internet and I still consider myself a novice when it comes to fishing there.
It has been mentioned before and I agree that the greatest benefits from the internet fishing sites are tackle reviews and recommendations. One downside is that I would not own nearly as much tackle if it were not for the internet. I would probably only own just a few rods, reels, and plugs. The internet definitely creates a buzz about certain new plugs and products and when those are no longer new something else comes along. I have learned to not jump on the bandwagon anymore.
