Beach Fishing

Ok, Im fairly new to sal****er fishing but not fresh water, this July
Ill be traveling the North Western coast of the U.S. in hopes to catch
some sal****er fish, unfortunetly I wont have a boat so ill be fishing
from shore, or a dock or maybe a small raft in a quite cove. What can
i expect to catch, what should i use for bait (live and fake), and can
i use a simple open bail rod with 16 pound test for most of the fish???


THX for the info

If you plan on using your rod for bailing, be sure to keep the plug in the
boat...oh right no boat, sorry...

:)

37 years old and can't recall last time I heard someone use that phrase...or
even what it means!

and what phrase was that, "open bail" is that not what you call a
normal freshwater real also known as a flip real i could say. Or is it
that i spelt bail incorrectly?

Open bail reel

Spinning reel?

Flip reel?

Man, must mean spinning real, yes?

Are you English? Remind me of one of my current bosses who is...

I just grew up calling them open bail, at least up north in MN they
call them that. but yes i meant a spinning real, but im pretty sure
most reals spin.

Eh, that would be a baitcast reel...not spinning reel...according to those
pics...and don't I wish I was there!!!!
