    Hopewell Valley Student Podcasting Network  Show Name:  Hookin a Big One Episode Title:  Surf Fishing  You are listening to Hookin’ a Big One the podcast with your host(s) Harrison Mylowe. In this episode of Hookin a Big One  the Podcast we discuss: Surf Fishing Segment 1: IntroductionSurf fishing is fishing off the beach register with the NJ Saltwater Recreational Registry Program and obtain any necessary local permits. Regardless of where you start surfcasting New Jersey, be sure to follow local regulations. For example, while most beaches allow surfcasting in non-guarded locations, some only allow surf fishing during non-guarded hours. Still other spots may require a seasonal parking permit or beach badge. But the real key to the “when” of surfcasting is knowing the time to head out.Jersey Shore surf fishing is best if you follow the eating habits of the species you’re after. For most anglers, that means you should plan to head out before dawn and in the early morning hours or before dusk. There will also be fewer beachgoers around during these times as well.And don’t forget to pay attention to the tide since high tide drives fish to feed, making it easier to increase your catch rates.When fishing from shore, the key is to have the right rod. You’ll want to get one that’s longer than a standard size so you can cast as far as possible to catch larger fish.For your line, anglers who enjoy surf fishing use either monofilament or braided types. It’s also essential to master saltwater fishing knots. Start by matching your knot to your needs by reviewing the most popular types like the Palomar or surgeon’s.Licenses are not required, but New Jersey State fishing regulations are in effect and enforced, and anyone over the age of 16 must hold a New Jersey Saltwater Registry permit. (The permit is free — click here for more information.)Surf fishing for beginners is easy to get started with just a few surf fishing rigs, some natural saltwater bait, and a surf rod and reel combo. The gear you decide to use should be based on the target species you want to catch.  Segment 2:  gear There are different types of saltwater fishing baits Shrimp, Crabs, Squid, Cut buit, Mussels There are Different types of easy  fishing knots including the Palomar Knot, Rapala Knot, Uni’s Knot, Surgeon’s KNot  Segment 3: Title of SegmentText or script goes here.  You can also include any links mentioned in your show that you want people to check out.
