Need some advice on gear
Submitted by Mayfly on Sun, 2015-01-04 00:32
I plan on buying some new gear in the future so I did a bit of research to try and find the best set up for me.
I've been mostly targeting bread and butter fish in the river and want to start targeting bigger fish such as mulloway and snapper.
I'll mostly be fishing landbased in the river for the mulloway and the north mole during winter to hopefully land a snapper and maybe beach fishing every now and then.
Would this setup suffice?

but first up, when chasing those pinkys at the mole your gonna want a longer and a slightly heavier rod
id say go with a 9ft 10-15kg rod when chasing those pinks and mullys

That will be a good allround
That will be a good allround combo, but maybe choose a slightly longer rod - 7-9ft.
The Crank mentioned is too heavy for that reel (I have both that rod and the reel you are looking at)
Gen Blacks are great value rods - you won't go wrong.
You would only really look at a longer rod than that if you start fishing beaches.
