Relocating from South Africa to Houston at the end of the year. Try to get in as much surf fishing as i can in South Africa and want to do even more when I arrive in Texas. I've been lurking on a couple of forums but still not quite sure of typical fishing equipment and how it's done in Texas. Appreciate any help with the following questions for when I arrive in December. Want to ensure that I take along what's needed and buy the right gear when I arrive
- are you alllowed to drive on the beach ? 4 x 4 needed ?
- we typically fish with 14ft rods with mulitipliers such as Shimano trinidads and the like. Is that too heavy for surf / wade fishing in Texas area ? Also have a couple of smaller sticks 8 to 11ft with coffee grinders. Would that be more suitable ?
- Are many sharks caught in the surf ? what type of gear is typically used ?
have plenty more questions but would appreciate help with the above
