I was throwing a Strike King Spit-N-King in the shad color. Im taking some salt water plugs with me next time. Creek Chub's Striper Strike, and some Offshore Angler's pencil poppers. If you get on bass pro shop web page under salt water lures they are under hardbaits and surf. With the bigger poppers you would have no problem reaching out there from the bank.
Good luck and let us know how you do.
