| Re: New here and to fishing what type of fish will you be after , If just general fishing i would look at 4/6lb main line with a lower breaking strain hook link . Hooks size 12/14 /16/18/20 Mixed tub of lead shot |

personally id say read a few books or watch a few dvds to help ya get started, there is way to much info needed by you to help you out, starting from scratch with no knowledge at all, i personally would read some more, im a noob myself but i have basic knowledge and knowledge either comes from time served or reading! just my 2 cents worth!  |
