I guess the biggers thing I can hope for is a 2 kg fish...


With the exception of Whalers,, generally speaking boat size doesn't
have much to do with the size of fish one catches. It's more dependent
on where you fish and what you fish with (bait and gear.)

What should I go for?
I know nothing about rods or tackle...

If you don't anticipate anything larger than 2kg i would suggest a
seven foot 15 pound class Ugly Stick rod (see examples at:
http://www.tackleworld.co.uk/acatalo...k_Rods_25.html
and a Shimano spinning reel that holds about 200 yards of 15 pound
test mono-line. The Shimano 6000 RE Bait Runner is a good choice. See
it at:

Hi all,
I will be doing lots of fishing in the Adriatic sea. I have a small
zodiac
and will be going out with it. What should I get in terms of rod and
tackle?

Any advice is welcome,
Thx


Depends what you are going for and where you will be? - Here are some
of the fish around according to a Croation website
http://www.magicyachting.com/biggamefishing.asp which may give you an
idea of what tackle to go for.
