The Surf Starter
save 12%Everything to fish a beach, starting from nothing
A rod, a reel, line, hooks, weight and the pliers to get the hook back. If you have never fished the surf and own none of it, this is the whole list. The 8 ft D-Wave is the one we hand people first: long enough to clear the shorebreak, short enough to cast all day without wrecking your shoulder.
