Ive been surf fishing since I was a kid. Not a big expense at all. You can get a decent surf set up at Wally world or K-mart for under a bill. Thats where I buy alot of my fishing gear.

As much as i love fishing i have a love hate relationship with surf fishing. i love it because i love fishing but i hate it because surf fishers usually cast into the lineup.

follow migration patterns

find out what they're feeding on

look for birds or boats working an area

some old pros will tell 'ya the bigger the bait the bigger the catch

many areas come alive at daybreak before sunrise


party hearty

The Delaware State Parks allow you to drive onto the beach with a valid surf fishing permit and a 4X4. We have almost 20 miles of beach. You must be actively fishing if parked. Some guys get real crazy with gear that's not all that neccessary. It's a great way to spend the day, pack everybody up in the 4X4, beach chairs, beverages etc. and hit the road. After you've got your gear the biggest expense usually turns out to be bait or beverages.

Go for it.

I like to fly fish in the surf. We're coming into the hali mating season...big bastiges come into the flats to do the dirty, and eat. Also sand sharks, spotfin croaker, guitarfish surf perch, a real mixed bag. Very relaxing...back in the day you could go out, smoke a cigar, wet a line...alas, no more.
