Thread: Been a long time fishing, got questions for the pros.

1) like most things, it ups the sales …that is it catchs fisherman at the tackle shop.
2) I’d go light as above 1 or 2 oz…plus bait …or a lure up to 40 grms ..kentic energy whilst casting will pop 20 lb like cotton
3) depends on the beach, heavy gravel , sand , rocks , sea weed abundance ..and what your fishing for.
4) reel capacity …your reel should have recommended capacity, a full reel creates less drag when casting, but a over full reel will spill line causing a cluster fuck.
5) I fish bait , so not sure, but apparently 65% of a fish’s senses are smell so if your lure fishing ..adding fish oil maybe productive …but is it considered cheating…perhaps ask @Shearer!
6, not in a saltwater situation.
