Look at what Stetzko does 10 to 30 feet from the wash ....
I think we wade and rock hop too much at times and muck up the kitchen the bass are wanting to come into. And I`m still repeatedly guilty of this.
Not rock hopping but wading too much.

I let the water depth/tide determine that for me, if there is good water in the boulder field to work and produce fish yeah no need to enter the kitchen. But if it's low water with lots of exposed rocks/boulders and bubbleweed all over that's just to low to hold fish (you know what I'm talking about, that 1-2 ' and less stuff) and I can walk/wade this junk to get out and work the remaining boneyard and cast beyond the breakers and work my offering back through it (getting back into the productive water) than that's when I feel it's what you do and that's where it's worth having the korkers.
