ive been using 14lb fireline braid coupled to a tapered carp shock leader.for beach work with a fixed spool for the ease & distance on my 17ft kt long rod for 2 years now ,,,never lost a thing yet ,,,,but the beachs are quite clean down here ,,,,,,,,use 10lb mono for spinning get two many wind knots for braid,,

hi all ,,,,very interesting about the spine of the rod ,, ive heard that before but ignored it,,,,,i keep a penn surfmaster 70 in my box for those little emergencies & apart from being alkward to put on with coasters it works well on all my multiplier rods ,,,,

hi mate ,,if your only guna use it on your holls ,try the 3 piece grauvell mg surf 450 . comes with a half decent fixed spool as well for 60 quid from veals ,,,,its the best 60 quid for a cheapy ive ever spent ,

ive got a old abu spinning rod i bought in 1969 & i still recon its more user freindly than the 100 quid carbon stuff ive tryed to replace it with ,,as for beach stuff i learnt on longbows ,,,,now there using long rods the same way ,, but back then you could catch school bass & flounders with out the need to cast far ....i draw the line at having to wear a duffle coat again though,,,,

there might be more of us but we are limited to say 200 yds from shore ,,,on a good day that is ,, so to defend us lowly fisher folk , i would say we make no difference at all ,,,,ive seen the hoover type boats out there , i wonder what they chuck back in dead or quickly change in to sumit else ,,
-
hi darlick ive often thought ,,if shops that sold tackle /bait ect handed out a small fact sheet with basic guide lines for the novice , like min sizes ect ,,,with every purchace ,,, it might help to stop things like this and would cost pence ,,,,,,,the cure is mostly in the prevention,,,,,,,cheers ,,,,,,,,,lucky rich ,,,,,,,,

surely common sence would come in to it ,,,theres nowt on a codling to fillet untill there 3,to 4 lb ,,wasent not english by any chance was he,,,,,,,
-
got to get some limits out there (with made in uk stamped on them) ,,no boats within a mile of shore ,,,then just gauge it ,,the bigger the boats the biger the distance from shore ,,that in my oppinion would help without getting to tecky....ohh and no jonny foreigner ,,,bit basic,,, but this is where it all starts ,,,plus its dead easy to keep a eye on,,,,,,,,, every body notices close in or big boats,,,,,,,
