I live further up the coast and have not fished in Cocoa but will try and get some information on bait shops and things like that to try and help get some information for you.

Hi, I called a tackle shop in Cocoa and they can provide you with information on fishing on the beach. It is open 24 hours unless marked differently. They are currently catching Red and Black drum on the beach. Their website is [log in for link] and you can get their phone number there. While in the area the Banana River system is sometimes good for fishing Redfish, you can probably find some local charters if interested. Hope this helps and good luck. Let us know how you do and put up some pictures.

I am going to plan on hanging around titusville also as that is where I am used to fishing. But am going to try my hand on shore fishing. already did a ton of research and got the rod that best fits my build so on. BUt am going to still need to get some items when I come in.
