Hey Jenn, I have to say that he is not too far off there, as far as letting you go alone. Although Baitcaster never has a problem with me fishing by myself if I want to go. I have some problems with it. A few years ago it would have never bothered me to spend a night on the surf by myself, but times have changed. I have been aproched by some real jerks out there, I don't really call them fishermen, they are more beach party goers with a line in the water, I am talking about the ones that are just out there drinking and druggin, and who knows what else. I actually had a guy once who just wouldn't leave me alone, and was really starting to get me a little un nerved, and I actually ended up picking up my bait knife to give him a little notice to back off. I am no small person by any means, grew up with 4 brothers, and can pretty much handle my own as far as kicking the sh** out of someone. But with my latest health problems, I am definatley not as strong as I used to be. We must all be cautious now a days on the surf, it is not so bad that we have the elements to deal with, but alot of other factors also, and I am not just alking about women either. I don't know if any of you remember the fellow at the canal last year, that was beat up by 3 guys and all of his gear ripped off. You just never know, and is it really worth the chance!!!!!! Not trying to bring you down Jenn, you can make those decisions for yourself, but you must always watch your back out there, you never know whom you may run across in the surf these days.
