1. Always go with company. This is one of the most important points, especially if you're fishing for the first time. Rely on someone with prior experience in this activity. If you don't know anyone, it's best to check out the different fishing companies in your area to learn the basics: how to use the equipment, the best fishing spots, weather conditions, etc. 

2. Respect the environment. This is crucial. Fishing is a nature-based sport, so if we don't take care of the setting where it takes place, this discipline could disappear.

3. Consider natural factors. You can learn about all of them here, but remember to check the weather before planning a fishing trip.

4. Check your fishing gear. The rod, reel, or line are critical factors and must be in perfect condition to ensure none of them fail during the catch.
 
5. The bait. This will always depend on the type of fish you want to catch. If the fish usually swims closer to the surface, you'll need to choose bait that floats more than for those found in deeper waters. But it should always be durable and have a good design.

6. Ensure you have the necessary licences and permits. This might be one of your biggest hurdles—you'll need to check the regulations depending on the region and ensure everything is in order. Here we answer all your questions. 

7. Other recommendations. Since fishing is a sport that involves long waiting periods, it's essential not to forget basic items like comfortable clothing and layers depending on the time of year. It's always advisable to bring some food and drink, though some companies like Escuela de Pesca Madrid or Escuela de Pesca Girona include a snack in their experiences.
