hey all, looking for any advice and someone with experience to point in the right direction in regards to beach fishing the big cape york, Ive got 2 months off and heading up there around july 2013, any tips and tricks

I plan on getting a new light weight 8-9 foot glass rod for casting all day, can any one recommend a rod and hopefully the trusty Penn spinfisher 850 is up to the task, 50 pound braid should handle everything right?

any one got any fav poppers/shallow divers they could recommend for queenies and GT?

between my and bro in law im thinking either charter or hire a boat for a day or two here and there but mostly just got leg it.
