What's your fun on a shoestring idea?
Fishing

Tell us about it:
Because it's cheap and it gets kids of the street and provides them with an interest that does not cost the earth.

Private Pond - No Fishing sign
Make sure you're allowed to fish in the spot you choose...

What do you enjoy the most?
The fact that there are so many places to fish - out in the countryside or even in the centre of the city.

Who would enjoy it?
Everyone

How much does it cost?
It varies but usually under £5 and sometimes free!

Is there any special equipment you need to do this?
You can always find second hand bargains, especially fishing tackle.

Where and when can you do it?
From dawn till dusk and there are loads of places to fish in and around the city

Got a favourite activity or pastime that costs less than a tenner? Tell us about it!
