  1. Hi my name is Adam (Yes another Adam) I am 36 and have been fishing for a few years now (got started/interested as a kid but was never really properly taught etc so I have been doing some fast learning over the last few years)... Mainly only shore fishing as I dont have a boat but am hoping to rectify that when the Minister of Finance (wife) releases some money back my way!!! Most of my previous shore fishing has been hooking up Bream, Flatties, Leather Jacket etc I am trying to learn some new styles of fishing and thought this site would be a great place to meet some new ppl with different fishing experiences as well as pic up some great tips/info from the forums! I am currently venturing into beach fishing (am actually heading out tommorrow morning early) hopefully I will have a successful report and some piccys for everyone tommorrow evening, though could be nasty as this will only be my 2nd attempt at Beach Fishing and my first use of my new Alvey reel and Beach rod setup that I bought the other day... (never used an Alvey before so it could be a humorous morning) SO far the site has been an informative read and everyone seems really friendly so I am expecting to be a regular reader and hopefully contributer to the site. Good Fishing All!!!
  2. Thanks for the info Roberta, I have tried a few times before and could get the worm head up but could never get the worm on the pliers Am heading out tommorrow morning to try again now that I have read your informative post! wish me luck
  3. Hi All, Went down to my local store looking for a new Beach fishing rig! After scouring the forums I was originally thinking of getting a Alvey 650B or 6500bcvrr with matched rod but the guy ended up selling me the below combo.... Ended up coming home with an Alvey 6000BCVRR reel and a Wilson MT6144 12ft rod. What do you guys think? I am a first time Beach Fisher and am looking at a decent versatile combo That will catch the smaller fish but will also handle the bigger fish if I am lucky enough to hook some! I also got some Platinum Platypus 12lb line for the reel! Have I got the right setup?? I also have a spare Shimano BTR 4500B that I was thinking of putting 20lb? line on (Braid or Mono???)and was thinking of buying a rod to match... SO I could have a Spin combo aswell. DO you think I am on the right track??? Would appreciate any/all advice!
