TPW rules are not clear (2012 booklet).
I am not talking about throwlines, trotlines or sail lines - - only rod and reel.
What is the maximum number of hooks one could legally use on a single rod and reel in surf fishing ?
TPW also does not define "fixtures".
A huge number of surf fisherman now Kayak their lines out from the beach - - so number of hooks - - - or leader length - - - is not an issue because casting is not used and does not limit your ability to get a mass of hooks and baits out there.
Therefore, the importance of the question.
It's not a trotline, a throwline, or a sailine so those rulz don't apply - - this is a surf rod and reel.
TPW does not have a clue.

I'll answer your question with a question....
Why do you want more than two? ( unless you're targeting bait)
Now, Donald...please pick John Bolton for your running mate.

I can barely afford bait shrimp for one hook on 2 rods, let alone more.

Yes there is. The title of the article is "Legal Freshwater and Saltwater Devices and Restrictions for Fish"

I think you cant have more than 200 hooks in the water at once.
Fishing is fun and adictive, but always stay safe. Happy Fishing!
