• Answer:

  There are quite a few different ones on the market, I would suggest as your first one something simple and relatively cheap like a combo kit. It all depends on what kind of ground you are fishing as well, where I am we use a 30lb line no leader as the chances of getting snagged are quite high, this way we get the kit back. What I would suggest you do is to go into your local fishing tackle shop and ask the guys there, they will have local knowledge, other tips from people who do fish there and will happily give advice on what you should be getting to set up. They are also less likely to put you out of pocket as returning customers are what these shops need. www.worldseafishing.com for plenty of advice new techniques and a better idea of what goes on in fishing, also for purchasing for home delivery goto www.gerrysfishing.com for a good selection of combos and kits. They are normally quite willing to give advice also. tight lines :D
