Newbie Rods and Reels Advice - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Welcome to saltwater fishing. I would go w 2 30 lb setups and 1 15 pound setup to get started.

In reality I bring at least 3 setups to fish yt - one for making bait (fin or squid), one for jig, n one for live bait.

Which rod n reel for each setup? lots of choices n opinions. If you wanna buy right gear fist time, go fishing w a local guide n learn what you really need n why. They will let you use their gear n u can get a feel for it. Then buy your gear used bit at a time as u find it.

If u want specific ideas shoot me a pm
