Hi everyone, I’m completely brand new to fishing and just wanted some advice on whether I’ve bought the right gear for lure fishing off Cornish rocks/cliffs and harbour areas.
I’ve now bought:
Daiwa Crossfire Bass rod, 9ft, 10-35g casting weight
Abu Garcia Cardinal reel (3000 size)
Hercules braid
Mainly planning on targeting things like bass, mackerel, pollock etc using lures/spinners/soft plastics from Cornwall rocks and harbours.
Does this sound like a decent beginner setup for what I’m trying to do? Also, would this rod struggle if I’m fishing from higher rocks/cliffs and need to lift fish up?
Any general advice for a complete beginner would be appreciated too.

Hi all,

Just had a few questions about single living accommodation in the RAF.

What’s it like day-to-day? Is it generally quiet or can it get quite loud/rowdy, especially in the evenings or weekends?

Also, is there enough space in the rooms for a PC setup (desk, monitor, etc)?

And one more, I’ll be around 25/26 by the time I finish training. Are there many people around that age in single accommodation, or is it mostly younger recruits?

Cheers 👍
