Actual fishing gear? Quality braid makes an absolute world of difference if you're casting lures land based. The difference between a Finns or Powerpro and a quality 8x weave like Tasline or more recently i've been using shimano grappler/ocea is staggering and will 10x your enjoyment of firing lures...

I spent the almost a decade wandering around clifftops in Victoria and abroad, eventually found a spot I liked so much I moved here. I barely camp at all anymore, mostly because I have world class rock fishing at my doorstep and no need to travel long distances. I really really enjoy swag life, and...

Grab a bait pool, squid sorrento jetty and keep some live squid alive, then drift them off the jetty on a low tide between 7 and 10 am. Rip the biggest shiniest popper you can back and forth around wh...

30lb tasline or shimano/daiwa if you didn't already have a 30lb option. 50lb tasline will do the job on literally anything you'll hook from the shore in Victoria Top shot it with enough mono that the braid will never touch the rocks / pier etc that you're fishing off, I would suggest 10ish metres jo...
