Hooking them could be a problem mate. Use some of that line I gave you in the little dispenser tub to tie it on the hook. Not the best stuff for the job but should work

The one im using today my mate gave me. Its a Shakespeare alpha beachcaster and the reel is a Shakespeare mentor. Dunno what any of that means but if its comparable to car makes mines a clapped out Nova lolFishing is a funny old game when you first start out mark......as we both no doubt remember
I was lucky enough to have a good mate who was right up on it and only too willing to help me along.
So much out there these days tackle wise......my first beach caster was an ABU 484 and what a cracking rod it was too.....accounted for some good fish back in the day

Sometimes them clapped out Novas can get you further than a Rolls Royce Jon..........at least you have a line in the water mate

Well, back home and just put pie and chips in the oven cos I didn't get a bite all day!
An old fella approached me as I was packing up, and proceeded to inform me that I wouldn't catch nothing in that area unless I used lugworm. Well better luck next time! In off now to cry into my pie and chips!

Oh well mate.....it goes like that for all fisherman at times........more than they would like to admit.....me included
The link I am putting up here looks very useful and should help you out with the choices and methods.
It will make some good reading on a wet and miserable day when there is nothing else to do
Good old Google will help with any species you would especially like to target as well.......and where/how to fish for them
Also look up what knots/rigs and how to tie them properly.....very important.
torbayfishing.com
If you have a tackle shop near you pop in for a chat.......most of them are very helpful.
Keep at it mate........one day it will be you passing on tips to others
