Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Fly fishing from beach

Sinking - or at least intermediate - lines typically help in surf fishing to avoid getting washed around in the waves. Your strategy can work for sure, but also look for areas of current seams if there's an inlet somewhere. You'll also want to bring some topwater poppers along in case you find a pod of fish running along the shore chasing bait.

My wife and I are taking a short vacation to Rehobeth Beach in mid-September.  I thought I'd bring along my fly rods and give a shot at fishing the surf.  I've never fished salt water before.  My idea is to wade out to maybe knee high and chuck some streamers at any structure like piers or jetties and strip it back.  Is that doable?  Should I be thinking about a sinking line?  Obviously, I'm clueless, I'd appreciate any advice on technique, flies and equipment.  Thanks.
