Want to start lure fishing

[Guest Newt]

I was on-line with Cabelas getting some hooks and line that aren't available locally and ran across what looks to be a great starting place if you have wanted to try the lure fishing thing but didn't have quite the gear for it. Being sold as a Walleye (Zander) setup but would be good for many other fish.

 

Rod/Reel and some jig heads with assorted tails that should appeal to Zander. Price is $30 US (£20.5).

 

Details:

2 Piece 6' 6" Walleye Special Rod

Rated 8-12 pounds

Lure Weight 1/4-1/2 ounce

XTC 30 Rear Drag Reel

Line Capacity 170 yards of 8 pound test

5.1:1 Gear Ratio

In case you've not done any overseas on-line ordering, the folks at Cabelas are accustomed to shipping to the UK and seem to do it really well.
