Well, I have read "the complete book of surfcasting" by Al Ristori, New England Stripers, a fishing anthology, and The surfcasters Guide to the Striper Coast, by Muller. I have taken notes, highlighter stuff, folded over pages that I found helpful. I have a rod rated for 1-3 ounces 9 feet 10-20 lbs test With a penn reel. A few other basic lures and such. Was making a list of what other lures to get that might be in almost every surfbag.

I need a set of waders, a wading belt and a few other small items.

I picked up the surfbag on the cape I think on 6a close to the RMV. I can't recall the name of the place but it was nicely stocked and looked like they knew what they were doing.

Do any of you catch bait with a casting net? Is it legal?

What is a canal special?

I think Cabelas and Bass Pro are good starting points for any fisherman. Just the more you get into a hobby, the more specialized store you start visiting.
From a woodworking background, I know hobbies can get addicting and out of control.

One more newbie question, do you attach leader to every lure?

How big and long of a leader do you use?

I think I am asking going from Lure to Rod, what is the standard items you need? Leader, snaps, swivels and such.
