    So here is the skinny. I have been ice fishing hard for the past couple of decades, but never got into open water fishing. This is the summer that I am going to give it a shot, but don’t know where to begin. I build ice fishing rods, so am in the process of building an open water rod, but I have zero tackle for this. The lake I fish most has mostly sunfish and bass. I would like to get some stuff for walleye at some point because I will be building a walleye rod as well.

    1) where do I start with tackle?
    2) am I going to want to do a casting or spinning rod?

    Anything else would be greatly appreciated!
