I'm looking at starting up a home business (in of course the fishing business). I'm not looking to make money, just want the write offs accustomed with it. (My buddy does golf right now and writes off a ton of stuff I can't believe). I was wondering what all you need to start a home based business. How much for business license, any other licenses, having to check for registered names, etc. I may start a webpage, but I don't really care about making money, just care about writing off some of supplies I currently buy and any loopsholes I need to watch for.

thanks......
