For me the cost of fly fishing on the local tarns and lakes in Cumbria was becoming a bit too much. I had a young family and fishing was starting to be put on the back burner, simply due to cost. This lead me to look for more cheaper options to take part in the sport I love. Only living 2 minutes from the cliffs, beaches and piers of Whitehaven I decided to give sea fishing a revisit as it is what i had done when just a boy.

I had a rough idea of equipment needed, i knew it consisted of rod, reel, line and tackle. So with this in mind i headed to my local tackle shop for a quick browse.

I’m always on the look out for a bargain, or always trying to do something on the cheap. With a idea of what I wanted I started browsing online, looking at forums and tackle reviews for the best…. but cheapest options. I come accross a rod and reel combo on eBay for only £64, I can’t remember the exact model but i remember it was a shakespeare set up of some sort. I bought some ready made rigs from my local tackle shop with some frozen mackerel and headed off to the west pier in Whitehaven, needless to say I blanked. Blanked but not put off all together.

So your thinking of starting sea fishing? Here’s a head start.

No matter what level of experience you have as a fisherman, you will benefit greatly from having the right reel for the job.  You can easily learn what you should be using though and improve your skill because of it.  There are three different types that you need to consider.  These are the casting reel, the fly casting reel and the spin casting reel.

The Bait Casting Reel

These are quite difficult.  The line on them is pulled off the rod by the lure’s weight.  It is then thrust forward in the motion of casting.  They provide a device that lays the line evenly across the rotating cylinder that acts like the core of the reel.  Without a smooth cast it will cause problems when the line is reeled in.  The line can become tangled, too.

The Fly Fishing Reel

In a fly fishing real, you need to insure that it has a drag that is very responsive.  Then, you’ll need to purchase a reel that can stand the tension and strain put on it by a large fish.  These are more expensive reels than other types.  Make sure to check to make sure there are no plastic parts on the reel.  All metal reels are much more dependable and they make it worth the price.

The Spinning Reel
