My little guy wants to go fishing. I don´t know a thing about fishing. We went to lake Loveland last week and all I did was lose a bunch of lures. What I really need is a boat and some beers. Fishing tips welcome!

Mi pequeño quiere ir de pesca. No sé absolutamente nada acerca de pescando. Fuimos al lago Loveland la semana pasada y todo lo que hice fue perder un montón de señuelos. Lo que necesito es un barco y cervezas. ¡Consejos de pesca por favor!

"MI pequeño" is enough, Matt. "tipo pequeño" sounds very peculiar. :-) - Gekkosan, Aug 5, 2010
Bueno, gracias. - MattM, Aug 6, 2010

Consejos sobre la pesca When my son was about five - not sure if your adorable son is maybe a bit younger? - I took both my kids (daughter 3 years older) to a summer kids' camp. There was a wharf and someone had made a lot of fishing poles, lines and little hooks and I soon found out that the object was to smash a mussel from the wharf, attach that to the hook, and lo and behold a shiner would grab on and the kids were all ecstatic. I ended up sitting on the edge and 'baiting' hook after hook not just for my son but for the whole camp. They all loved it - it was the most fun they had all week - beating out kayaking, swimming, games, etc. So maybe you don't have to go for fish from an adult perspective but maybe aim a little lower - you will really have fun (and like has already been suggested) you will bond like crazy!

I suggest taking more lures, some beers, and a boat if you want to be away from the edge of a lake. But most importantly, go a few days before the fishing season opens. Of course this is illegal, but the benefits are no need of buying a fishing license and hungry fish that are more anxious than nymphomaniac on death row. Enjoy!

Here you go, Matt:

Sugiero que lleves más señuelos, unas cervezas, y un barco si quieres estar algo lejos de la orilla de un lago. Pero lo más importante, ve unos días antes de que se anbre la temporada de la pesca. Por supuesto que esto es ilegal, pero los beneficios son la falta de necesidad de comprar una licencia de la pesca y peces hambrientos que están más ansiosos que una ninfómana en el corredor de la muerte. Disfrute!

What I really need is a boat and some beers. Well Matt beers and boat aren't a good mix especially when you have a young toddler aboard but beers or no beers if you go out in a boat be sure to put a life jacket on that and nice young fellow and on yourself for that matter, as for the fishing bit you can buy an inexpensive book on the subject and you will glean plenty of advise from other anglers jut like you get plenty advice here on your spanish.

Ayuda con pescando

I don't think that is correct. You are using the gerundio as a noun. I think that it should be Ayuda con pescar or pesca since there exists a specific noun for it.

acerca de pescando...same argument.

In English the gerund is a noun. In Spanish it is not.

Your right, I wanted to say "Help with Fishing". "Ayuda con la Pesca" is better. I'm gonna stick with the Gerund in the other case it works much better there. Thanks - MattM, Aug 5, 2010

Patience has to be one of my worst virtues. This will give me a chance to work on that. Thanks Paul! - MattM, Aug 5, 2010
You are welcome Matt I find it easy to be patient with children I love them and am involved with the Children's Ministry in my church - FELIZ77, Aug 5, 2010
