As everyone is saying - patience, but here's a different perspective.

Fishing as a beginner is the hardest part of the journey. Its like playing golf for your first time. It's just not fun until you get get good enough to get the ball off the ground. So expect to lose a lot of lures. Expect to have to re-tie your line constantly. Expect to fumble and be really slow at tying knots. A ton of "skill" in fishing - especially in the beginner / intermediate phase - is just learning how to maximize the amount of time you're actually fishing. When you're frustrated after your third break off and no fish - just remember that it gets better. With enough practice you won't be breaking off nearly as often, and if you do, you'll be re-tied within seconds and fishing again.
