The Ditch is about 8 miles long give or take with paved path down each side. About 10 feet down from the path the bank of the canal starts, it is lined with stones to prevent erosion most of them aren't too big. Many people park and walk to particular spots but bikes allow you to cover mucho distance in a short time. There are several places to wade, but many large fish are caught without ever getting your feet wet. You don't need much equipment, jigs, plug bag, and a little cooler of eels if you want them. Sometimes it is windy, but waves aren't a problem till a barge goes by. I can't comment on crime, but I see people (fishermen) there almost every time I am there. I don't haul a ton of junk with me because it is a short walk to the car if I REALLY need something different.
As for a vehicle, I would recommend a car. Most of the time you'll just be driving is the expense of fuel, insurance and maintenance worth it for the two tiems a year you might go on the beach?
