I Need some help with fishing from the beach.

#1 Post by Hanley180 »

Hi everyone im new on the site and just looking for a little help, i have recently started fishing again and im hooked (no pun intended).
But now im trying beach and rock fishing and i havent done it since i was young.
i have the gear and the bait, at the moment im using sand eel and mackeral but where i need help is ,
(from the beach) should you just cast n and let your bait sit there? (any tips)
is the ways of telling good spots to cast or where youll find the fish?
i just need the general info so i can catch.

Best tip Would be to join a local club, learn everything you need to know + all the good spots.
