inspired by the above I just found this - ebay item 220185848422

says a lot when the new uns are only 6 quid but loads of people bidding on this one

rods * greys apollo, century black knight
reels* 525 mag, super mag, slosh 30 and sealine x 30 for the heavy stuff
tripod *shakespeare salt
headlamp * princeton tec apex or mfa led rechargable
seatbox * shakespeare with the back rest
clothing * mustard 2 piece for the pier etc and ocean waders, kennets storm smock for the beaches etc
plenty of fags, hot flask, occasional sarnie and sometimes the odd couple of cans if its a nice relaxing flattie sesh on the river in the summer
as usual far too much bait

m gear

Always remember fishing the blast beach with m father on a fri night, we had 5 or 6 good cod to 8lb but the tilly lamp kept going out.
M dad was gettin quite pished of with this lamp.
I moved away along the beach some 4or 500yds so he could have a good swear to his self.
Then I saw this flaming ball heading seawards, it just looked like a comet but I new what it was.
No lights homeward bound we went.
Arr them were the days.

eeeee aye the good owld days when the train from n/cle central to n/shields used to take 3 hours and bait was cut out the drums of guts and heads that used to line the fish quay. The best marks were the union quay for crabs and loydds jetty for sprats and poddlers. casting distance was as far as u could swing the weight on ya handline

macdonalds cafe on the quay and the sandpiper cafe (porthole pub now) for refreshments

[insanojackson]

simple answer is usually too much gear!!!

[johnf]

A mobile phone in one of those little sealable plastic bags if I'm fishing on my own. And a spare head torch.

best thing ever
stainless steel flask. whatever the weather...hail,rain or shine
had my flask over 10 years now

My hints:

+ Bait elastic in a pee sample pot with the hole cut out of the top
+ Half made traces without the hook length so you can see if you want them long or short
and crimp them where you want
+ Small hook for the top pennel - you'll get more hook ups than 2 the same size
+ On a clean beach, fish two or three hook rigs if you can - why limit yourself to just a string of bait e.g. bomber rigs. The white booms can be fantastic for bait presentation and if you fish them, will outsfish longer rigs
+ For rock fishing or cliff marks at very short range fish 50lb straight through
+ Always put loads of shockleader on your reels
