Smile Howdy

Post by Rom21 » Tue Dec 22, 2020 5:41 pm

Hi Everyone,

Rom here, a total newbie to fishing. I am keen and looking forward to learn from experienced anglers.
I am initially looking to fish off from piers around melbourne to start off. I am still clueless but researching on basics and what nots
like type of baits to use, ideal rod and reels to use and fishing spots as well.

Hope you guys have a great xmas season ahead :-D


Cheers

There's fish in marybrnong river. Best is to start with where you want to fish and ask here in the forum and local tackle shops.
