ok Can i use my coarse fishing gear for mackeral fishing and beachcasting?

[H.A.]

A decent carp or spod rod will allow you to spin or float fish for mackerel.

 

Ideal for calm-weather, night-time bass fishing (20 metres).

 

Ideal for mid-range, calm, shallow-beach work .....

 

where you'll fall down is if it's rough, weedy or a lot of tide.

 

Try it and see.

Hi

I use my quiver tip up the rivers for mullet or on my local pier floating for mackerel and gars,

and i also use my carp rod for golden grey mullet off the beach when its calm!

But i think its just down to the tide run and the amount or weed really!

A carp rod is also fun for flounder fishing. I use a pierced bullit weight for the light surf.

The bait (usually mackeral) rolls about in the surf and the flounder seem to take well on this tactic.

yes if you wish ,a 14ft match rod is ideal for hurling a 6oz weight to the horizon and carp rod is ideal for skate fishing ,use your head :confused:

But make sure you rinse it all down with fresh water before you pack it away.

 

The question however has been answered by Dr Malcolm in Jurrasic park. "you could but the issue is whether you should"

 

OK its a loose quote(ish)

 

When I was a kid I used to fish off harbour walls with a 13ft cane match rod. Was all I had. Caught absolutely nothing whatsoever using this approach.
