I just spent a half hour reading this thread. I subscribe to OTW and I enjoy most of the articles. However it seems some stuff has been over looked here.

The magazine has several sections in the back every month which give reports about different sections (and spots) in NE. Soco, block island, upper cape etc. If thats not spot burning I don't know what is.

I'm from the south shore of Boston. Do you honestly think I'm going to drive to rhode island or cape cod and scout spots not having any idea of where to go? Especially these days? Many of you are living in fantasy world. People who enjoy things like fishing, skiing, cooking you name it, want information and they will get it one way or the other. I'm sorry to tell you.

I want spots, I'm not ashamed to say it. I guarante all the sharpies on this board have more than one spot that was shown to them or they heard about. I under stand if you have a couple secluded honey holes etc. I have those too and don't want them burned (cough cough....Ron Powers). But you bet your ass I'm going to research well known spots, Pt Jude, Race point etc before I spend $63 driving down there only to find out I'm fishing the wrong tide and half mile to the left from where I should be. Maybe I'm not a true surfcaster in the sense that I don't snorkel and scout every spot i try but honestly i don't have the time or $ to waste when I can have information that will help me for $ 27 a year. I respect the water I don't litter, I don't slam beers and discard beef jerky wrappers but perhaps I'm not a pure breed
