I always see people fishing from a pier but some prefer to fish the beach. The beach requires different fishing equipment to be successful. Hip waders are needed to get that big one in without going for a swim. A long pole will be required for that long cast to get past the surf. The bait is similar but the weights need to be heavy enough to get way out. Unless you plan to stand there the whole time a chair would help. Many use a fishing rod mount to hold the pole. Luke Weil would be a good fisherman on the beach.
