No matter if you are a beginning fisherman or have been getting your line wet for many years, you still need to choose a body of water that you can fish. Luckily, no matter where you live you should be able to find plenty of bodies of water in which to fish. This may change based on your state, but if you look long and hard you will find something that suits your needs.
As a beginner, you should try to find a body of water that is close to home. This will give you the best chance to spend the most amount of time fishing. After all, if you have to drive hours to get to a lake or river, you will not be able to fish nearly as much. When you are hitting bodies of water in your area, you will have the chance to practice your skills regularly. In turn, this will lead to you becoming a better fisherman in less amount of time. Of course, you may want to change your surroundings from time to time; this is perfectly acceptable. And if you live in an area without a lot of options, you can definitely do this.

Generally speaking, if you are interested in freshwater fishing you will want to look into the lakes and rivers in your area. Smaller bodies of water, such as ponds and streams, may also do the job for you. On the other side of things, saltwater fishing means that it is time to head to the ocean. Obviously, if you do not live by the shore you do not want to take up this type of fishing.
No matter what body of water you choose, make sure that you are aware of the fish population. If you are fishing rivers or streams you can be all but ensured that you will find some fish. But remember, not all lakes and ponds have fish. It would be silly to fish in a lake that does not have anything to catch. Actually, it is more or less a waste of time.
If you do your research, you should be able to find plenty of bodies of water to fish in your area.
