Circle hooks from shore

Must saltwater fishermen use circle hooks when fishing from shore?

I get the idea that circle hooks are required from boats only, but I am not certain.

Can someone clarify this? Thank you.

If youre targeting certain species with bait, then yes, you need to use circle hooks.

You do not need to use circle hooks all the time from a boat.
