GEAR ALERT
Equipment questions often confuse non-fishing parents and other adults who want to take kids fishing. For good reason: The choices are many and prices vary widely.

Metro ponds and lakes stocked with fish for kids and locations of shore-fishing docks also are listed at the same online location.
