The Casa del Pescatore(the Fisherman's house) is the main focal point for this hobby. You can find everything there - bait, clothing and every instrument or accessory you could possibly need. They can also give good advice, even if, like every fisherman, they don't want to give away the secrets of where to catch the most fish. Review © 2007, Wcities |
