Fishing Gear
Fishing gear is a family in the shop catalogue for Hangzhou Fujie Outdoor Products Inc., presented here at family level only, secondary to the boot families. This page publishes no item, no model and no specification. It helps a buyer describe the water, the fishing and the group in the inquiry.
Describing the fishing
A fishing gear inquiry starts with the water and the fishing, not with an item. Describe the water: a river, a lake, a shore or a marsh edge, and whether the water moves or stands. Describe how the fishing is done: from the bank, standing in the water, or moving along the water through the day. Describe the season and the weather, the hours spent fishing, and the group — how many people fish, and whether they fish together or spread out. A buyer who describes the fishing first puts the setting in the inquiry. A buyer who only names a family leaves the water undescribed, and the water is the whole setting.
The neighbouring pages divide the fishing world by use. The fly fishing gear guidance page covers questions about the fly fishing use. The ice fishing gear guidance page covers questions about the ice fishing use. Waders and fishing waders cover standing in water while fishing, and the guide on choosing fishing or hunting waders covers the choice between the two waters. Hunting gear is a separate family and should not be mixed into a fishing list. Reading those pages before writing the inquiry keeps the lists clean: the fishing list, the wader list and the hunting list each sorted by their own use.
Sorting a fishing gear inquiry
Sort the inquiry by water and by fishing pattern. For each water, note whether it moves or stands, how deep the wearer stands if standing in water is part of the fishing, the season, the hours and the group size. Note whether the fishing stays in one place or moves along the water, because a moving pattern asks different questions from a still one. State the quantities in plain terms — the number of people fishing, the number of waters served — and mark estimates as estimates. If the order serves more than one water, keep the waters separate in the item list.
The destination market belongs in the same message, with any documents to be requested named alongside it. Certificates are available upon request. A buyer who sends the water, the fishing pattern, the quantities and the market together puts the whole description in a single message, and any confirmations received can be kept with the quote. The waders pages should be read alongside this page before the inquiry is sent if standing in water is part of the fishing, so the gear list and the wader list are sent together.
What to confirm before ordering
Before ordering, confirm the questions that belong to the water and the fishing. Confirm how the gear suits the water, season and pattern described, confirm anything about moving water or standing in water, and confirm what to check when each item is first used. If the fishing includes both fly fishing and other fishing, keep the two patterns separate in the inquiry and confirm each one on its own terms. Put these questions in the inquiry, in the same message as the item list and quantities, and keep any answers received with the quote. This page publishes no item specification, so keep any confirmation received, and any documents received, with the quote.
