Hi. I've just got back into fishing after a brief lay off of about 15 years! I was 18 then. I started again when I was invited fly fishing (trout) with a lad from work. I love it, and he sold me a decent Daiwa rod, Snowbee reel, and threw in loads of flies, line, priest etc. I then dug out my float fishing gear and went on the local res a couple of times for a dozen or so little roach and perch. I now want to have a go at catching some bigger coarse fish, probably carp, and I've always fancied netting a pike. Are these 'everything you need' packages for £100 or so crap, or perfectly OK for a beginner like me? Would I be better getting some better quality second hand gear? Have you got some you want to sell me? Any other advice would be most welcome. Cheers. Bobthetrain.

Hi Bobthetrain and welcome to AnglersNet.

 

Some of those kits are an excellent value and some are near worthless.

 

Ask for advice in the Coarse section and then you will have enough info to ask for specific sorts of gear in the For Sale section.
