If you're skinny, no extra gear outside of drinking water is needed. Just wear lightweight waders and keep your jacket in a small duffell bag when walking. If you're fat, go to the breachway and rotate.

When fishing with a partner, drop one off with the stuff and the other goes back to park and comes back on foot. Switch for the trip back. Or space out two cars and cover a length of shoreline on foot. Back in the day, when I was in shape, I would drop off whomever I was fishing with and run back.

Very few people will walk more than a half mile to a spot. Put a compass on a map and space it out for two miles and draw a circle - you'll be amazed at the places you can access. In RI, if you are ok with walking 2M one way, I can think of no spot you can't access. If you are ok with waliking 1M one-way, you can access more than 75% of the shore.

There is a forgotten country of spots out there and you'll be all alone once you have re-discovered it. Outside of two places I've never seen anyone fishing in a spot that was a big walk from legal parking.
