Hi
I've recently retired, did some beachcasting in my 20s , so starting afresh , I intend to get myself a basic set up , like rod ,reel , tripod , weights and lures for bass etc, but I do have a few questions if that's OK, not really specific but just for a general idea, they are:
What size hooks for general shore fishing for Codling, bass, flaties or whiting , is there a general size I should stock up on .?
Also what lead weight size and what poundage shock leader , I haven't bought anything yet but intend to anyday now.
Plus what poundage line , again a general size/ weight to get me started,
As an oldie on a budget , I want to get myself everything I need to get sstarted but realise it probably won't be the best money can buy if you get my drift, im ok with that, now I've seen some complete sea fishing sets on ebay that look promising , any views on these?
Any info or advice welcome.
Cheers
Bozzie
