Default Sea Fishing Newbie!

Hello - I'm used to fresh water fishing and so this sea fishing malarky is
quite a different kettle of fish for me! I've just got a question about
why my reel seems to continually get in a tangle with line spooling off on
a cast out into a bloody big time-wasting bird's nest at least two or
three times a session. Do you think its got anything to do with extra wind
from the sea or the weight of the tackle (maybe underweight), etc, rather
than just me being crap (this never used to happen on fresh water casting
this frequently!). So far, I'm really only spinning from the shore with a
pike-lure sized spinner.

Cheers for any advice!


I would simply suggest you change a fixed spool until you get the hang of
it. IMHO spinning with a multiplier reel is more for the US anglers and
their more forgiving weather.
