Yeah, I dunno - if it hadn't been for dumb questions and the occasional old timers takin' pity on us (occasionally at our expense) - none of us woulda learned very much - it's the mentoring thing, I guess -

Besides, we got enough old-timers around here to offer a hand -

All that being said, there are times I gotta admit a brief tour of the FAQ's would be a swell place for the newbies to start -

Ah, what the hell - it just the enthusiam and curiosity of yout' (no 'H') I s'pose...

	"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
