if I may Bernie, you sound like your very enthusiastic about the sport, as you should be. Most of the people here have acquired their gear over a lifetime of trial and error, so don't let your head spin with the amount of stuff you think you need. Grab a few bucktails and poppers, maybe a needle or 2 and a set of lip grippers. The biggest thing is safety. Know the waters you're gonna be fishing in. There probably isn't one person on this site that doesn't have at least 1 or 2 close-call stories that happened in areas they knew like the back of their hands, and if you're gonna be wadding in the water at night, and you're new to the sport, PLEASE, bring a friend or at the very least have a life vest on. Enjoy, part of the fun is the trial and error.

Calling fishing a hobby is like calling brain surgery a job. ~Paul Schullery

There he stands, draped in more equipment than a telephone lineman, trying to outwit an organism with a brain no bigger than a breadcrumb, and getting licked in the process. ~Paul O'Neil, 1965
