I always go out to fish the surf around Freeport when weather & water conditions are good, but that's not very often. I usually wait for days when the surf is mostly flat and green all the way to the shore. I've had good luck with trout, bull reds, Spanish macs, etc.
Here's a good site to check how the Freeport surf is looking:

I usually check it every morning when I get to work. If you want to go out there with me next time I go, you're more than welcome, but there's no telling when that will be. I'll show you where my go to place is.
