new to fishing what real ?

[craiggt4]

my mate is thinking of starting bass fishing with us . as he has never fished befor (ever) do you think he should get a multipler with level wind OR a fixed spool real

[NICK R]

I guess it depends on what method he will be fishing for bass

[craiggt4]

with crab bate soz forgot to put that down the rod is a bass rod casting up to 3oz to if that helps

[NICK R]

i normally spin when there so i use a fixed spool

tell him to go to menai angling for advice

Hi Craiggt4, if your fishing for bass from the beach with lures your better off with a fixed spool loaded with 20lb braid, bait fishing still a fixed spoll, from a boat a multipler with level wind, hope you get some good bass, tight lines Boo.

For lighter weights and more versatility you cant go wrong with a fixed spool.

However if he is going to be using it for beach casting then get him straight on to a multiplier and forget the level wind. They just cause a whole load of head aches as you improve.
