I had to take the Mrs to Bournemouth today and we took a walk along the beach between the piers. After reading a few comments on here recently it got me thinking....
I grew up on the Thames & Medway estuaries and loved fishing them when I was a lad (a long time ago now). What gear would I need to do a bit of pier fishing down that neck of the woods? as it's about an hours drive from home. I've got some predator type rods for pike, and wondered whether that would suffice, or maybe an old carp rod.
Wouldn't mind doing a bit of lure/feathering either. I take it I can buy bait locally when I get there?
