The gist of the problem is that I don't catch fish. I admit that I just started, I apply the shiny little bauble, cast my pole out into whatever body of water I am currently at and nothing. The timer counts down and zilch. Now, as a qualifier I am new to fishing.....doing for food for my pet and have only tried approximately 10 times. Maybe I'm in an area too high for my fishing skill? Maybe I'm just to impatient and that isn't enough tries? Constructive advice appreciated. -TIA
