Wish I knew, bought a handline to try from a kayak. No license so it barely cost me anything to try it, ended up feeling motion sickness after a little while and caught nothing. Might be worth trying to get a basic rod and go from land, but there is so much terminology I don't even vaguely understand to go through. Think there are a bunch of different types, like you can just leave some hooks in the water and wait until something gets caught, or you may need to constantly be reeling in the line to get something to bite it. I know I would rather go with just leaving a few lines in the water, could have multiple out then too.
Had quite a bit more luck with crabs from the shore, though they are fairly small. Could probably make a nice crab fried rice with a few of them though and then use the bodies for stock. Not sure how much if any fishing regulations apply to restrict what I can do there though. Mainly limitations of method, like how many nets, how large. There are no catch limits on green shore crabs that I am aware of, brown crabs have got a minimum size and possibly a number limit for personal consumption.
Then of course I have no idea where is actually a good place, and I don't know anyone interested in it to talk to that could help give useful advice.
