Fishing spots and equipment - Skippy - 07-03-2019

Hi everyone

I think the word newbie is even too advanced for me, I've been fishing a few times but caught my first fish exactly a week today and now I'm hooked (excuse the pun). I quite enjoy bass fishing though and would like to do it more often but money is a little tight so I want to start with some cheap equipment until I maybe have some extra cash to buy better stuff.

So 3 questions:
1. I know this is asked multiple times on the forum but maybe someone has discovered a new spot they're willing to share. I live in Brackenfell and I am looking for good bass fishing spots near brackenfell if anyone has suggestions. I was very sad to find out today that Fisher Haven just off Bottelary road no longer allows fishing, because that would have been perfect. 

2. If I have a very limited number of lures, say 4 different ones at first, what would you suggest I get first or what works best? 

3. If you have some extra rods or lures or fishing gear at home you're not using but don't want an arm and a leg for, please PM me with the gear and how much you want for it so that I can start fishing soon :Smile

If you have any other tips or tricks or favorite places to buy gear, you can send that to me too please.

Thanks in advance

Welcome Skippy

I'll post you some info here when I'm back at my pc.
Tad difficult to keep the world turning from my mobile

Thanks Jim_from_Zim, that would be greatly appreciated.

And yes I agree with the mobile. Very convenient, but not made to do everything. Smile

This is going to be a rather difficult question to answer directly as most guys in the cape keep their spots as a closely guarded secret. But, do some research on this forum and you'll find a few places that you can bank bash. 
Also, save some bucks for a float tube and join the kickboat league - its great fun and you'll get to fish some magic waters. 

2. If I have a very limited number of lures, say 4 different ones at first, what would you suggest I get first or what works best? 

The saying goes: "if in doubt, put a fluke out". Personally I would rather invest inn 5inch senko's instead. Get some green pumpkin colours and watermelon colours, and 1 pack of straight black. You can throw these in just about any configuration and dam/pond and you'll catch. 
Speaking of configurations, rather try get knowledge on rod set ups and line. This will be more important than actual bait. Youtube is a good place to see different set ups. 

3. If you have some extra rods or lures or fishing gear at home you're not using but don't want an arm and a leg for, please PM me with the gear and how much you want for it so that I can start fishing soon 
Troll the bass junkie site on farcebook, there are usually good deals there. But do yourself a favour and get close to the tackle shops - they give way better service than a private deal.
