''The best time to fish is whenever you can,' because for the most part, it's not about the fish, it's about getting out on the water. While some only fish in the early morning and others swear by the first thaw of spring, Superstein warns against letting these restrictions hold you back. You can fish in the heart of downtown Chicago or on the Hudson River in New York City and still get the benefits of nature while living in an urban setting, Superstein says. Fishing is likely more accessible than you think. There's no need to venture into the depths of the woods or up a mountain to a small trout stream. Ask fellow boaters, workers at the bait shop or members of local fishing clubs for the best spots to fish and the best type of bait or fly to use. Instead, check with people who know the area. There are 21 slots for you to place the toy fish into the base. There is a switch that you hit that is going to rotate the base and get the fish moving. The game comes with a big base that looks like a little pond. From weather to season to type of fish, there are so many variables to take into account that Superstein cautions against sticking to any hard and fast rules for catching more. The game is for 1 to 4 players (but is more fun if you have at least 2 players) and is rated for ages 4+. 'Spending more money on gear doesn't necessarily mean you're going to catch more fish.' And don't feel like you have to spend a fortune, Superstein says. Some even come with the necessary knots already tied. If you're a total newbie, look into buying a starter kit that includes a rod, reel, line and flies. According to Superstein, you can actually do it in saltwater, lakes, ponds and rivers.

Contrary to popular belief, fly fishing isn't only done for trout in mountain streams.
