If your looking for buddy boats you should post where you are fishing from. The premium weather days are the best days to get buddy boats. Other than that you will be out there all alone and getting your butt handed to you.lol
How much money are you willing to drop on gear?
THe cheapest way to get started if you already have 4 or 5 hali rods is to fish Xraps. As much as I hate those things in all honesty you can get 6 or 7 for a couple hundred bucks and your good to go or good enough to go. Full spread of gear with 7 lines, rods and reels not included will be around $350. Home made splashers are real money savers. It doesn't matter what it is as long as it splashes. I highly suggest considering hand lines as well. Very fun. Yozuri K9 Dive board are fun too. take your cannon balls off and run them off your down riggers at 20 feet with a 15 - 20 foot leader. For the clones and zukers I suggest using the double hooks. This will keep your hook up to landed ratio way higher and do not stop the boat when landing fish.
I could go on and on and on. Did this help.
