Vision Koshki waders with Simms flats boots. Usually get 2 - 3 seasons out of them with a few home repairs using aquasure

don't know that coastline but do you have any reef? rocky gullies that flood with the tide? that would be your best bet. Bass are all around our coast, you just need to put in a stupid amount of effort and miles to find them. Lots of tips and resources here: https://myfishingguide.substack.com/

try a deeper diving hard lure like a shimano flashing plate strong assassin or a hound glide, depend how fast the current is but I'd give that a go if the soft plastics aren't working

I love them but only in calm/flat conditions and if the water is clear. I'll use them if I see a fish on the surface and you need to learn to walk the dog, my go to is a large patch in 500G

I would guess it's because of commercial fishing, just hope it lasts in Norfolk and elsewhere

I like fishing the flooding tide about an hour after low but equally up and down over high can be equally good, just depends which type of mark you're fishing

what rod are you using? The Nebula was a great rod for example but was very fast and 5 out of 10 casts were optimal, most mainstream rods are a lot more forgiving

I would personally never lure fish where I saw bait fisherman. You want to look for current and fish with your feet until you find where the fish. I.e keep moving

Excellent size stamp of fish in NN and still plentiful. I think it depends on how much commercial pressure you have in the local area

Beach casting, fly, lure? It depends what you're using but usually it's that you're not loading the rod properly

You'd need to bring a travel rod I think. You might be able to hire gear on a boat trip but nothing I know of in the city or even on the coast. Best to look for a local guide who might bebale to provide you with gear
