| Re: tackle box basics for beginners Hi, just joined 10 minutes ago as I'm looking to get into sea fishing, been course/carp fishing for a few years but I really want to have a go at beach/sea fishing. If I try it and find it's not for me, at least I tried it, which brings me nicely to my point....... Can I use my carp rods and reels to see if I like it rather than shell out for dedicated beachcaster stuff straight away, and could someone post and idiots guilde to weights etc please as i keep looking at them in my local tackle shop, but am still none the wiser. BTW, I'm thinking Dungerness or littlestone as possible venues, and really want to catch Bass and Cod. thanks everyone....Gary. |

| Re: tackle box basics for beginners hi Gary , pit sized reels are fine but not the rods as you need to cast weights around 5 or 6 ounce .. 18lb mono , size 2/0 hooks .. __________________ Shore Species 2012: Dab-Flounder-Herring-L.S.Dogfish-Pouting-Shore Rockling-5 Bearded Rockling-Small Eyed Ray-Turbot-Whiting |

| Re: tackle box basics for beginners Thanks lads, I might just go down to that tackle shop opposite Greatstone beach car park (by Dungerness) and get rigged out, I should imagine I could get a basic two rod kit for probably £200 - £300 and if i hate it, i'll flog it. Any tips on rod lengths for beach casting (I'm only 5'9" but fairly stocky) and weigh about 15.2. thanks again lads. Gary. |
