Hi everyone.
My name is Julian. Good to meet all of you.
I'd like some help choosing some basic gear to do a little fishing here and there.
I regularly travel from Reed Point marina to South Thormanby by boat. I was thinking that it would be fun to do a little fishing enroute sometimes, as well as when the weather is too snotty to make the planned trip (like this last weekend ).
Other than a license, what do I need to do some mooching? When I was a kid, I used an old rod and reel with buzz bombs to catch rockfish and lingcod. I don't imagine buzz bombs are still top rated...
I want to buy quality gear. I looked online but it's hard to tell the difference between information and advertisements...
My boat is a Silverstreak Gambier 18.6 with a Merc 150 four stroke. I like it. It corrects me when I get it wrong hahaha. I'll probably drift off Bowen and the Trail Islands, and ofcourse Epsom Point.
One important thing; I'll be releasing anything I catch.
Thanks!
