1: get a license you scrub
2: if you want the saltwater equivalent to bluegill fishing here's what you'll want
>Spinning heavy bass gear with #15 or #20 braid>Pre made high/low rig with #2 Aberdeen hooks>Pyramid weights, 1, 2, and 3 ounce>Squid and bloodworm fish bitesPut one or both of the baits on your hook and lob it from the side of the pier
>What you might catch doing this>Spot>Croaker>Pin fish>Sea Robin (don't touch these fags, just grab the hook with needle nose pliers and shake it off, they're a pain in the ass) >'sea mullet' or 'whiting' (colloquialisms for northern king fish and southern king fish)>Skates or stingrays3: what to do if you hook a shark or Ray
>Break it off4: when
>AlwaysWhat else: have another bass rod that you can comfortably wing 1/2 an ounce with 15 or 20 pound braid, rig on a leader of #50 mono or flouro, tie on a gotcha plug, and keep an eye out for people catching bluefish or Spanish mackerel
What's worth eating
>All the king fish>Spot >Bluefish and Spanish can be good if prepared properly and eaten fresh but don't bother keeping them at first >Might not find bait shopsJust go to Google maps, and search "tackle shops [insert area you will be here]" then go in and ask them for tips, and if any of their information contradicts mine, take theirs
