Hi Mick,

I think Derek is trying to make life difficult......fishing is supposed to
be fun!!
Buy one of the Abu Garcia 11" 6" Enticer bass rods now on offer at £25 and a
fixed spool reel for another £20........go fishing and ENJOY.
Why does everyone seem to think you need to win the lottery to go sea
fishing nowadays.

Regards,
Brian.

what to buy?
 
hi all

i brought some gear last saturday as follows

Shakespeare Odessa Bass Rod
http://www.swiftys-fishing-tackle.co...d778aa9b0610c8

Okuma Magda 20D reel
http://www.swiftys-fishing-tackle.co...oducts_id=5310

it took me a little while and quite a few tangles to get used to the reel
but i got there in the end, is all i gotta do now is stop catching weed and
start catching fish

went down to portsmouth last sunday and friday just gone i fished from the
outfall jetty and the walls by the fair and the sea life center, the wall
seemed better as there wasn't as strong a current used rag and mackerel
(great fun trying to get the rag worm on the hook) didn't get anything both
days my daughter even caught more crabs than me but we had a great couple of
days and are planning on going again this friday

allso brought a cheap leeda beach caster rod and reel combo for £40 just to
get used to it before i invest any more money

thanks for all your help and advice i'll keep you informed of any were else
we try and what we catch if we do

cheers

p.s. also brought a book called sea fishing explained
