Alright, RJimmy, when I began my first striper fishing, I usally carry my grandpa's grocery cart, a red screened one, and it was rigged with strings around, two rod holders tied in the front (corners), three or four plastic shoeboxes filled with assecories, terminal tackles, leaders, and WD40. Plus, I included a bendable pier net and rope, and a small bucket with ice for my baits. I placed three or four heft plastic bags on the bottom of the cart if I happened to manage a keeper.
As for now, I carry a bucket and a lot of gears and you can name it. From now on, I am going to try to minimalize it to what I need to bring. One thing, don't buy a plano surf bag. If you have a large plug and a big hook, it can go under the bottom of it and get stuck. Plus it rattles when you walk. It isn't mobile. However, it's far cheaper you can go. Not far cheapest, though.
Like Vic just said (Hi, Vic), try to keep things simple. If you are a bait fisherman and have a car (keep your monster-loaded gear bag in the truck). Carry a bucket, a couple of sandspike, a surf bag for your two or three rods, a box with properly balanced terminal tackles, a few of rigs, a spool of leader of your preference, baits and ices, a bug spray or a cigar (I can't concentrate on smoking to ward the bugs off and fish at the same time), a hat, and a few basic assortments of plugs.
