I have been away from fishing for approx 5 yrs but recently found that the itch is returning.
I would like to have a go at beach lure fishing (purely because I cant be bothered with baits and rigs at the moment) I just want to be able to pick up my gear and go off for a few hours.
I have carp rods 2.5 tc and 1.75tc with various sea and freshwater fixed spool reels, a Daiwa Moonraker beach caster and an Abu Multiplier.
Which combination of rod and reel would work the best?
What lures would be a good starting selection?
What could I expect to catch?
And is it as simple as just tying the lure on and casting it out? (no fancy rigs etc)
My local marks would range from Southampton water down thru Hurst spit to Mudeford in dorset.
Any help would be greatly apreciated.
