Fishing tips for beginners an introduction

I have been considering this for a while, a beginner’s sea fishing series, but I am unsure if the winter is the best time for it or not. Having reflected on this for a while and with Christmas dawning soon I have decided it’s a good time for you to ask for some fishing tackle as Christmas presents to get you started later in the year.

I guess you are asking why winter is not a good time for beginners. Well, my reasons are as follows.

1. Â Its cold and you need expensive protective warm clothing
2. The best fishing is often in rough weather and sea conditions. This requires heavy weights and good casting abilities
3. You will likely loose more gear
4. When the going gets tough, the cold makes it tougher

So far you can see the seasons will be effecting the type of Angling you do. This is because different species come to our waters at certain times of the year, generally dictated by water temperature.

I will attempt to guide you on what methods you can try to give you the best chance of success against easier species, generally during spring and summer. The idea is that you will get a feel for catching, playing and landing fish as well as develop the bug. This enthusiasm can then be channelled towards more challenging species and a greater investment of time and money can be spent in your new found hobby.

I need you to get involved by asking any questions by commenting on the posts, or if you are a more experienced angler please add things you think have been missed or expressed badly! That’s the beauty of the web, it’s a work in progress – not fixed like a book.

Over the next few weeks I will publish a series of beginners tips, methods and ideas to help you catch more fish and understand more about sea fishing.
