You don't really catch many fish surf fishing,so bring lots of beer!
My dad used to surf fish near Atlantic City-Avalon was the name of the place-in the late 1950's.I watched him and did a little myself,so I will chime in.1st off bring plenty of beer;you don't really catch many fish surf fishing-least my dad never did.Bring some decent food that tastes good dusted with sand-cold cuts,bread,mustard,mayo etc.You will get hungry because surf fishing is a fair amount of work-surf pounding you,casting,walking in to rebait,or to re rig when you lose your's(you will snag on the bottom pretty often-shouldn't be anything but sand down there,but you will) etc.You also do a lot of walking;you will fish about an hr-no bites-so you will decide it looks better 1/4 mile down the beach-so the cooler,tackle box etc all have to get hauled down there.Repeat this several time before noon,and several times after noon.The food and beer will taste good-you will be hungry.
Well,sounds like you got the beer down pat-that is really the most important aspect of surf fishing.On the bright side-good chance you won't have to clean any fish.Charlie
