I don't know if anyone asked this before. but are rigs that important when it comes to catching a particular fish? or examples they said you'll need strayline rig to catch snapper.....!! true! but I disagreed. i'm here to ask what are your opinion toward this fact! I my self actually started fishing with fish finder rig..........then a paternoster rig and now back to fish finder rig again. becoz those paternoster rig they tend to twist my hook leader. |

What rig, what bait, what lure, live bait, the sinker weight, hook type, size, leader type size length, the location, the tide, the current the wind the water temp, the water depth ALL influence what u do and use on the day or even time of the day There is not simple mathematical formula (as in propping a boat or choosing the right engine) But there are heaps, yrs of good info in these forums and articles, magazines , TV programs that are VERY GOOD at pointing ppl in the right direction It comes down to doing ones OWN HOMEWORK.. then doing what works for them on the day. So if u do not understand Uncles comment.. u should do so now. Edit: just found u have posted twice the same thing.. this thread some 20 hrs ago and again an hr ago Really? |

kramerX it's like asking which is the best car to buy - there's no one-size-fits-all solution. As Steps said, there's a vast amount of info available on chosing a fishing rig - books, TV shows, youtube, websites - he's basically suggesting you do your research, then go out there and try the system that seems the best, just like he did, and I did, and Uncle did. Some of his posts take a couple of reads to figure out, but that one was pretty straight forward, and bad mouthing him does you no favours. I was going to give you my own Fishing 101 summary, but there's a little voice in my head saying 'trolling' at the moment, & urging me to hit the 'Back' key. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt & hit 'Post' instead - your response will be interesting. Edit - your 'thanks for nothing' post has gone, but it's replacement is in a similar vein. The little voice just got a bit louder.

And after yet another unwise post by KramerX (I've hidden a few) he's gone. Thanks to all who tried to help him. Why people need to respond to help offered to them with rudeness is beyond me. ------------- Best gurnard fisherman in my street |

Come on smudge, be nice, the guy obviously has a limited grasp of the language, probably thru having been dropped on his head when young. You have to shake your head and wonder at these little kids who think we give a rats arze about their cuttingly clever repartee. Time for a full on ISP ban I guess. ------------- It is only my overwhelming natural humility that mars my perfection. Captain Asparagus, Superhero, Adventurer. |

Yeah Jon, he just achieves nothing! The problem for me is I want this forum to be a nice friendly place where new guys can ask the same questions we all asked when we were starting out. Free from embarrassment and all that stuff, then you get guys like Kramer, we try to help but it just isn't good enough. Takes all sorts I guess but we certainly do appreciate the input form those such as yourself who go out of their way to help. Then we get those people like Kramer, ostracised by his own countrymen. I just hope that other newbies aren't put off by idiots like him. Just for those who don't know, I have hidden a few of his 'better' posts  ------------- Best gurnard fisherman in my street |

Sounds like a second language user. I've done a bit of ESL and the phrasing is familiar. Doesn't excuse rudeness. |

| don't usually read the newbies section - but perhaps should do so more often - seems it can be funnier than the Humour section and more entertaining/enlightening... |

The winker has been banned already, why are we even still discussing this? Let this thread die please folks, so the Newbies section remains a nice friendly place as per original intention..... ------------- It is only my overwhelming natural humility that mars my perfection.
