Might still be a little early for shark fishing from the beach. I usally start catching around the begining of May. I use two different set-ups. Rod-Shakespeare Sturdy Stick BWB-125 7'
Reels- PENN 320 GTI and Abu Garcia 7000C I use these for Shark, KingFish,Dolphin, Snapper. Been useing these rigs for over ten years no complaints. 20 lb test with a 3 foot wire leader.
