Looks like I'm off to Spotlight on the weekend, cheers

What do you use for the eyes, couple of my old favourites are eyeless!

This may seem really stupid, but I was under the impression that the 6metre rule was a council regulation.Whether there is a signpost handy or not is irrelevant.Or are you saying that if you happen to be fishing in a place where you cannot see a sign then the rule no longer applies?

Got mine at Angler's Choice, as Buff said best things ever for little lures

Sorry, should have been a bit clearer.Land based, and as it will be my first time chasing them I will be trying bait and lure.As I said this will be more of a learner outfit until I find the style, and places, that suit me the best, then I will upgrade to appropriate gear. The combo I am looking at now will then be a back up/loaner.

Alright the bream are quiet in winter, and it seems the salmon are the go.So time to get a salmon combo.Probably looking to spend no more than $200 on an initial set up, if I get into it I can upgrade later and have the combo I am looking at buying now as a backup, or for the missus to use.With this in mind, a threadline reel would be what I am after as teaching the missus to use an overhead wouldn't be practical.Suggestions please
