We're heading up north with the van and kids in June and i'm wondering how heavy my fishing arsenal needs to be.Is there a couple of rod/reel combo's that suit most situations?Terribly open ended question i know due to the hundreds of variables ,but if something works for you i'd love to hear about it.

For fishing of
the beach i use 20 to30 pound line and 30 pound on one rod and 50 pound on the other from a boat with 1metre of wire trace over reef areas.The Penn GT330 is a great overhead real you can buy this as a combo very cheep but they are very good and will serve you
well for years. 330 means 300 yards of 30 pound line. I use eggbeater reels off
the beach with a two piece rod for ease of packing combo"s available also decide what line size you want to use then buy the rod.Don"t give the kids a big rod with heavy line or you won"t have it for long my 9 year old uses 10 pound line.
BCF is a good place to start ask the staff , good luck.

Thanks for the reply,very informative.Most of my gear is set up for lighter fish..bream,whiting,trout,yellowbelly etc so i'm hoping i will need the heavier gear for a decent fish!
