    Thanks all. Interesting about not catching them at night. Well I see how I go. Tommies are better than nothing anyhow.

    Merry Christmas,I'm looking for info on the best conditions for gar? The most common things I've heard are:- Night is better than day- Calm conditions are better than roughAnything else regarding tides or seasons I'm missing.Meteye is showing the Grange (I guess the jetty) will have 7 km/h winds and 7:30 tomorrow (Wed 18/12/13) and 13 km/h winds at 10:30. 1/2 metre swell.I'm planning on using gents on size 8 hooks under a burley float with an aniseed/tuna oil mix.What are my chances? I've never caught one before.

    Thanks again.OK, I'll head down the Ray Annes and have a look at the Dynamix and Ugly Stiks if they stock them. As well as ask for some advice there.One last question, Would the same rod not be suitable for both KGW and YFW?

    Thanks all. Working backwards:Kelvin: Both KGW & YFW ideally. I caught a few YFW from Tennyson beach a few weeks back but all were undersize. Metro predominantly. I hadn't thought of such a long rod. I was thinking of having 2 rods. One for whiting/squid and one for lures at flathead (the one I have is supposed to be for soft plastics - shimano sonic pro). But from the replies, squid can be caught with anything so maybe I should be looking for a whiting rod and just go after squid with whatever. I'll have a look at longer rods. Thanks.Knackers: I'd be happy to catch 1 Kg. Point well taken,

    So go easy I'm new to this,I bought a cheap rod and reel to have a play but getting more interested as time goes by.I'm looking to catch a meal so whiting, squid, flathead would be what I'm after (land-based).Some internet research has shown that a parabolic rod (slow action?) is best for squid and whiting and perhaps a little on the longer side (7 foot minimum). Although I've also read contradictions, this seems the most common advice.Easy, I think to myself, I'll go to the manufacturers website and look up some rods with parabolic actions, find one that fits my budget and happy days.Not so e
