Whether your a beginner or a veteran fisherman, saltwater surf fishing is one of the best types of saltwater fishing you can do. It can be one of the easiest types of fishing but it can also be the most challenging of all saltwater fishing. It all just depends on how you approach it. Over the next few pages we are going to help the the beginning surf fisherman and also have some advanced techniques for the for the veterans.
There are two types of surf fisherman. One is the fisherman from Indiana who vacations at the beach and knows there are millions of fish in the water and just wants a glance at one. The other is the grizzled beach comber braving the elements hunting for monster stripers. The truth is that most of us fall some place in between.

For the vacationer, saltwater surf fishing can be a wonderful activity for the whole family. You do not need to have an eleven foot surf fishing rod and an expensive reel to catch fish. Chances are you have what you need in the garage. If your goal is to just catch some fish, no matter the type or size, you can fish all day with a seven foot saltwater fishing rod and a saltwater spinning reel. For the more specialized surf fisherman, eleven foot rods and a Penn 525 are a heck of a lot of fun. Below you will find some links to some helpful saltwater surf fishing tips.
