One other thing too...don't think donning a wetsuit will put you into more fish. My catch rate is about the same and probably lower than fishing on dry land. There's a couple neat places you can get to in a wetsuit, but it has not resulted in more angling success for me, save for a couple decent fish.

You still need to know how to fish, which is my biggest problem.

Not when you count dogfish, however.

Thanks everyone for the advice. This is exactly the response I was looking for.

I am not looking into wetsuiting because I think it will automatically get me into more fish. I just think that since my learning curve is so high right now, I might as well start there.
