surf fishing

Surf fishing is a method of catching fish from the shoreline, typically on beaches or rocky coasts, using specially designed rods and reels. Anglers cast bait or lures into the surf where fish such as red drum, striped bass, or bluefish feed near the surface or in shallow waters. It often involves identifying fish habits, choosing the right gear, and casting beyond the breaking waves. Weather, tides, and surf conditions influence success. It's a versatile and accessible fishing style that allows anglers to enjoy nature and pursue various species close to shore.
