gone fishin 09-22-2006 03:16 PM

I never see a breaking tide on Nauset or PI or any beach, be it sandy or with the rocks of Rhody.:vamp: I would venture a guess that the average surfcaster would be totally confused by the anomalies of the ditch!:devil2: I have turned plugs that would not even be tossed to the surf gods, but in the canal rips and currents they dance.
I still call it surfcasting though:jump:

Yes, the sand does move frequently but the clues are often much more prominent than when fishing from the rock & reef, especially when you have hopped a couple rocks to get to a reefline 25 feet from shore depths that hide the tell tale signs of the seabed. I feel that fishing the sand is actually easier - physically - on the body than fishing from hopped rocks (especially after a fall that is less likely on the sand to begin with). Fishing the sand also offers it's clues a little more readily than a rocky shore. A ledge typically ends close to the shorline a sandbar is typically visible as it runs parallel or angles out with it's associated structure.

Each has it's detractions and enhancements and I would say both are worthy of being high end surfcasting.

But Jawny, see it today gone tomorrow, or by the end of the tide if the weather blows east hard. You always know where the ledges, holes rocks and such no matter what the weather gods send your way. And on the beach no matter what kind of foot wear your wearing it don't help in big surf, your feet go flying. Ain't the same JAWNY NOPE NO WAY. yOU MISSED IT btw, it was judt like the old days for two nights, now it's back to mung and seals and no fish plus it was very chilly last night and I wasn't wearing my lucky underwear and forgeot to wear underwear altogether which might explain the itch today. Salt and sand and mung make for a very itchy bum.:usd: :rotf2: :uhuh:

gone fishin 09-22-2006 05:39 PM

Ok -- just cast where the arrows are! :rotf3: OOOOPS spot burning ?:eyes:

I got to have my head examined for reading all this jiberish.

Swimmer 09-22-2006 06:30 PM

Be standing in the canal waist deep in front of a home where I used to have permission to fish when the a.....e goes by that cant read the english worded signs that say "NO WAKE". But I still agree its not the surf.

Or when a tanker or a deep-running barge goes by pushing tons of water ahead of it, and the suction almost pulls you under ;)

The Canal is the only place where I've lost fish to boats that didn't cross my line. The pull of that suction can tear a hook loose, just like when you try to horse a fish onto the sand against a receeding wave.

tynan19 09-22-2006 08:21 PM

Mike P, I love that sound. Before you can see the barge the water starts dropping around you.

JohnR 09-22-2006 08:47 PM

Flappy - What I'm saying is that there are certain things that make the sand Hard Core and certain things that make the rocks Hard Core and that they compliment each other in the Ethereal of Surfcasting. Both dig into the fabric of the soul. The canal can dig into the very soul of an angler too. So I would not venture to put one above the other...

Yeh - I missed it, but I knew if I went up it would have died that day :hihi: so you should be thanking me that I did not come up and you had for two, instead of just one :tooth:

Keep it on the lighter side! It's more fun. I think I have the answer!
Canal:TRANSPORTATION waterway: an artificial waterway constructed for use by shipping, for irrigation, or for recreational use. A canal may take in parts of natural rivers along its course.
I have every respect for the canal fishermen/man/fisherwoman/women!
It has it's own science. To be successful you need the knowledge, or a lot of luck!(Right place right time!) Every time I have been their I have done a header on the rocks.
So one thing is sure, you need to be sure footed.
Answer No.1 You are a Recreational Fisherman/Fishermen and or fisherwoman/women!
On the lighter side you could be fishing in a trough [ trawf, trof !]
Trof:a long hollow area in the surface of the ground or the sea bed, or between waves, a narrow channel, in which liquid passes.
I like the latter.
Answer No.2 They could be Trof fishing people. That will cover both sexes. :alien:
Bill see what you started. You certainly should win the most controversial posts award!:wave:
My defenition is it's a Trof. When you come right down to it, it is a trof of water that is controled by the moon and the tides, that carries fish to and fro!
Later Folks, L:sleeps:

So basically it is shore fishing, No mater how it is fished it is
not easy, the only place I sranged my ancle from a hard fall
about 10 feet up, climbing down.
