hi mate, if you can, get 2 older jills to start you off. If you can find them it would be alot easier for getting into it. buy yourself about 50 purse nets and a longnet if you can (traditional or quickset) get a locator and a spade, a carry box and all the rest you will need. I found it alot easier starting with lots of stuff, unlike one of my mates which started with very little, and couldnt manage the burries
