My fishing bud went out and bought a $900 fishing rod. Fishermen always say how a good rod is very important, but in my opinion it has little importance. Of course you need a good enough rod to get the fish on the beach, but a rod won’t make the fish bite.
Is there something i’m missing here about how the rod is important? I fish with a 25 dollar Walmart rod… it works the same as any other rod.
Your thoughts?
Its was a 300 st croix rod, and a 600 reel,

Hey all, another new member here and thought i’d also ask a question. I live on the south shore of Long Island and always go to the beach and I like to fish as-well, just have never gone shore/beach fishing. I already have an ideas for a rod 10/12 foot. Here’s the thing, I have heard mixed reviews on which are better for surf/casting. Either conventional reel or spinning reel. If I were to go with the spinning I would probably get the Black and gold Daiwa. I don’t really know my conventional. I am no newbie to fishing in general but to Surf/shore fishing I am and will be fishing for: Stripers, bluefish, weak fish, fluke, flounder, sea robins =\ a bunch more too. This will be my first shore/surf rod reel? Thanks-Anthony

Hello all and happy mother day single moms! Anyway, I want to fish off a rock pier but don’t know much about fishing there. I just fish in piers. I live in southern California and I’m planning to go fishing in seal beach. I would like what’s good for bait for sharks or any other big fish. I know basics so I’m not that new to fishing, but I just want some good advice/details on the correct way to fish off a rock jetty.
Thanks in advance. SoCal-Dude

I like to shore/surf fish for corbina. My next quest is trying to catch rays, skates and possibly a guitarfish. I have done well this early Spring and caught all three off the jettys in the harbor and (Ventura) my biggest guitarfish was just under 5 feet long (4′10″) and weighing somewhere along the lines of 70 or 80 pounds. I released it and regret doing it, but I can’t kill a shark. So now I am all pumped up and want to know how I go about surf fishing for them? I want that 5 footer again!
Any particular tackle, bait or lures? Specific rods and reels?- Serge

Hello all, thought i’d join and then ask a question about freshwater fishing. I’ve been a saltwater angler for 25 years and want to start freshwater fishing. My question is instead of going out and buying new gear will surf fishing rods, reels, and lures work for freshwater fishing? If not, what kind of equipment will I need to get for perch, walleye, trout, bass, crappie, catfish, etc. – Thanks Al in Georgia.

One of my favorite types of fishing is Shore/surf fishing for shark and still trying to catch one. So, my question is, I want to know if chumming would be good for shore fishing or not, and if possible what would you recommend to chum with? Surf Fishing is when you stand on the beach at the ocean and fish with a 10 foot pole or more and cast over the waves.

Morning all! I’ll be heading out to my local lake (Beaver lake Arkansas) and will be fishing for stripers in the morning after services and needed some general tips on where/how to scout out a good places to catch stripers. I don’t have a boat (yet) and wonder if I should go for other fish instead? So my question, is the Striper Bass Biting/ Catching good from the shoreline or riverbank or lake, etc..?
Thanks Johnny in AR

What to look for shore fishing? I’ve always been interested in mainly fishing from the shore. But I just can’t figure out when are the best times and lure/baits to use because some days I catch a lot of fish and others nothing what so ever. How do I avoid snags, I’ve used the snag free lures and weedless lures but I don’t have much luck with them.
All I’ve been seeming to catch this year have been 25″ + Northerns! Which isn’t that bad except for the destruction of my lures. And the ever so lovely line snap. I guess I prefer to catch bass primarily. I’ve caught a few but, small, but I a’m just not set up for pike. I need a stronger pole and set up that will work up here in Rochester NY.
Thanks- Anthony

Texas Gulf Coast shore fishing. I’ll be heading down soon and I don’t have to have top of the line equipment, but I would like to invest in reasonably priced, good equipment that will last. I am aiming to catch red fish, SW trout, pompano, and other medium sized fish out of the shore/surf.
Before I go is there any brand names, and specs on what kind of equipment to get for fishing in the surf in the Texas Gulf Coast you’d suggest?. Namely, rod, reel, line weight, weights, etc…the basics for someone with no equip!!! Thanks in advance!
