Need advice

[azza102]

Hey,
I'm new to this forum and to fishing in general. I am looking at buying a rod and reel. I will mainly be fishing off the pier in melbourne in the bay and occasionally going for bigger fish on a boat. I will be targetting whiting, flathead, bream etc.

I was just wondering what type of rod i should be going for.

Should i go light or medium action?

Should i get a spinning rod?

What length should i go for?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi az
slip into your local tackle shop, have a look and ask some questions. I think everybody will have a "best brand" and only that will do. My advice wood be is to set a budget and stick to it. Don't spend to much on ya first outfit. Should get all ya want for less tthan $150.
welcome to the web site, its great, tight lines in the future
cheers
