There is a one rod per person limit on the pier but no limit in the surf unless there is a rule at the condo you are staying at.

That's one rod in use. You are allowed to bring six on. More than six is $3.50 per rod.

Surf: no.

Pier: one rod in use at any time.

Well the rules on the pier say 1 rod in use with 6 rods max. total i bring 8 and leave 2 for backup at the condo.

I always bring a cheaper 30 size spinner combo with a sabiki attached for the tourist kids that look interested, and mom or dad didn't bring a rod(or dont know how to fish). It's always great seeing a kid smile when he reels up a rig full of LYs or the occasional keychain.

100+++++++ for Mr. Cleland and the kids! That's the way to make a good memory for the kid that can last a lifetime.

I have to agree that it is great helping the youngsters put a fish on the deck. This is this youngster's first fish ever and I helped because the drag was shot on her rental rod and the guy with her didn't know what to do.
Making memories for sure; I remember it like it was yesterday!

Fin---Why in the world aren't you smiling?

I thought I was smiling!

more like a sheepish grin to me.
