I rarely, if ever go to bars. But I make an exception most Monday nights for the pool league I joined. We recently had our last match and I was showing some of my teammates a few of the pictures I've taken along the way.

I wish I had come up with this idea earlier, so I had at least one shot from every week. But in the end I captured a dozen or so "scenes from a bar" that like. Todd

My first stop was at the Texas department of Parks & Wildlife website, where I find a nice little pdf for beginning fishermen (I fished quite a bit as a kid, but am a bit rusty to be a really good teacher to my girls just now).  Here's the link:  https://tpwd.texas.gov/publications/pwdpubs/media/pwd_bk_k0700_0639d.pdf That does a pretty good job of covering all the basics.  The next concern I had was bait, so I checked out this video (also on the website): That definitely gave me some good ideas.   Of course, sinc
