Go all the way down the sea wall towards the east. Fish the rocks there. We had really good luck there using live mullet and shrimp. Used a fish finder rig. Caught some good reds and trout.

The only time I don't fish is in lightning or the wind is too bad.

Go back to one of the baitstands around the 61st exit and buy a dozen or so freah dead shad. Ask for them by name. Cut them into 3rds when you're on the beach ready to fish. Cast out as far as you can using the largest rod and reels you have and wait for a Bull Red to hit. They're fun as heck but remember you can only keep (and tag) one. I for one would take pics of it and let it go. The meat on a big one chews like the inside of a golfball. BLLAAAA! CF?
