Now I see what happens if I don't keep my threads under control. Everyone's having a ball!

Thanks for the answers. Much appreciated. Bugger I'd be at the Murray before the cod season starts. But then the missus wants to head up to Fraser quickly anyway. More saltwater fishing then.

I reckon I'll just get an el cheapo rod and reel combo, a box of sinkers, hooks and float thingies and then I'll try to get some baite locally.

Thats all you need plus how to tie a blood knot, just use running sinker set up. easiest to use. 8ft rod little bit of guts to it. alls good.
I'll post some pics and other info tomorrow
but you're on the right track K I S

Lol, while the cat is away.........
but seriously, check out K-mart. By far the cheapest I have found for not too bad equipment. As previously stated, Jervis Walker rod and reel combo for $12 but you can get an 8' rod for $25 and reel for similar there.

My wife worked at Kmart, all my rods are from there, can't fault them caught and lost some big fish with them.
My father has some jarvis walker rods which I had recoed and sent straight to the pool room, solid fibreglass jobs from 60s and 70s

Or you can be stupid like me and have rods for lake fishing, rods for river fishing, rods for trolling, rods for whiting, rods for snapper, rods for squid, general purpose rods(rarely used), rods for beach fishing.

Do I use them all, NO
Do I need them all, NO
Do I want them all, YES
I guess what I'm trying to say is I waste too much money on fishing.
The most important thing to remember is "to just go wet a line, who cares what you catch or with what. The thrill of the wait and anticipation of the bite is what gets me going, that and the JD cans and my inbuilt pacemaker/defibrillator.
