After sounding some great fish we set out a spread and after a quiet hour, I checked my silver whiting on the BG that I had paired with a Daiwa Strikeforce rod (a Compleat Angler exclusive model that is an excellent snapper bait rod)

If youre hung up with distance casting as a newbie or youre going to be fishing lakes or big rivers just get yourself a 9 6-weight rod instead of a 5-weight

If hiking is a regular feature of your trips, choose a pack with a ventilated back panel and a stabilising strap or belt, like the Deuter Speed Lite 21

The casting reel is a different beast than the spinning reel a little more technique involved, a little more difficult to use, but one you get the hang of it, youll never want to put it down
