Been fishing for couple months but only drop shot & jigging method on a 7ft fox rage warrior rod with a shimano catana size 1000 reel. Caught plenty Perch and 2 pike so far. Best was 5.6lb a couple weeks back. Only on Flurocarbon not a trace. The other angler present on the bank of my local canal said that was an achievement in itself especially for a novice such as myself.
I would love to learn float fishing now. I'm just starting to learn all the lingo and terminology as some anglers use different terms.
I've purchased an old second hand 13ft Shimano Hyperloop match rod. But I've no reel yet. I'm thinking of going to a local second hand fishing tackle shop and just explaining roughly to him that I'm new to fishing and need a cheap set up. Think that'd be a good idea?
I'm aware I need around 4-6lb line, some shot, some hook links and a couple floats
Anything else?*
Any help would be appreciated. As I've totally fallen in love with fishing but it can be a bit unnerving asking other anglers when they also seem to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors and the peace and quiet.
I'm local to Castleford in West Yorkshire if there's anybody from this neck of the woods present, Hi
