Well thank you all for pitching in with your thoughts and some very valuable info. I am VERY surprised on the feedback on things like the "Comando Surf belt" and wading belt. I spoke to quite a few gents at the ditch and for the life of me do not remember anyone wearing anything that you spoke about. I also do not even remember seeing such an item listed on the internet tackle shops (ie. Tackledirect & The Saltwater Edge) which I buy from and have xmas gift certificates for. I also am a firm believer in patronizing local tack shops and Im you know why. I have tons of new lures as I have been "listening" to everyone and I believe I have all bases covered there. Things like studded boots I would have never thought of and make great sense, an absolute definite. Might have a couple three that I should have but will wait till someone advised that my box is missing such. Think I will head to that Conn. show so see what I can see. Time to investigate these "surf belts" ?? I live in N.Y. but pop owns a nice little Cape House in Dennis so I can fish inlets & tributaries, Sasuit harbor, and the canal. Any yes, I plan on humbling myself and trying to find several "verterans" to buddy up with to speed up the process, no faster way to become an avid striperer.
