Thanks for the replies everyone, especially mrfish for a cost breakdown.

Doesn't look too expensive to get started. I pick my oewn olives from public parks and brine them for months before eating. An hour at minimum wage would provide it all instantly from a store, but I much prefer the experience of doing it myself. maybe fishing will be the same!

Costs I foresee are:

- fishing rod and equipment: ?

- bait: ?

- licence: ?

- fishing club membership to learn more: $100

- petrol to reach water and back: about $10 return from eastern suburbs

- more?

I thought it would be a way to save money by not buying fish from the supermarket but when I imagine the startup and running cost I'm having doubts.
