Hi All i am posting this on my brothers behalf, He lives in enniscorty wexford and has two young sons, he is not a big fisher man like most of us in here, but he is looking to try and get his sons into the fishing to see if one or maybe the two of them would take it up, and im all on for getting younger lads fishing, the problem is , he has not worked for some time now and like most of us, cash is very tight, he ask me if i could help he out with some fishing gear, ye no problem, the question im asking is if anyone has some old kids rods and reels and other stuff, free of charge or maybe at a small price maybe we could help them out.
Thanks all pm welcome
Thanks again
Alan.....

What type of gear - I'm sure we can all spare a few bits.

I'm sure I can help out with some bits and bobs. Living in Dublin but lots of my gear/boat etc is in North Wexford. Let me know what he's looking for and I'll root some stuff out.

Thanks dan i sure they will start with a little bit of flounder fishing, it might be the best way to start no need for a cast out....
