great to hear you are bringing the old eel rigs back, though.
See, Joe - that's what I told ya earlier...

But wait til you guys see the Newport bobs - you'll go nuts

"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.
