The beach changes week to week, day to day. So deep spots on last years imagery may no longer be there.
Anywhere along the beach may be could on any given day. Look for points, breaks, troughs, etc.. Anything to concentrate bait.
Moving up or down the beach just a 10 yards may change your luck drastically.
You may catch whiting, pompano, reds or flounder fishing a Carolina rig with fresh shrimp, live shrimp or FishBites.
Use bubble rigs, spoons & jigs with a 50# mono leader for ladyfish, blues and maybe Spanish macs.
Don't over-rig, 8-10# lines, #4 hooks and 7-8' med spinning tackle is all you need. sinker Weight depends on surf conditions, might be 1/4 oz, might be 3 oz.
Whiting can be at your feet in the surf and flounder can be in the beach trough, don't cast past the fish!Carl
