I was a diehard surfer for shore,,but saw the sign's of thing's to come...look into the tin/fiberglass to see the light once again.

The seals are killing us. The Elizabeths are not immune either. We are seeing them way early in the fall than they used to be showing up. Now it's early September rather than early November. Something has gotto be done but the GOV'T. don't care bout us, it's animals first humans second. Well F^%& them! We have a right to the resources too just as much as seals do and we want our beaches back!

Yes & Yes!
Steve & Steve, I could not believe seeing that lone seal that day, I also had a bad feeling he was a "scout"... you both can remember seeing the odd lone seal show up on the backside, then a friend told a friend and so on, and so on... they follow the fish, find them, and spread the word, to their fellow sea rats.
Larry, if you can get a skiff, do it. You will not regret it.
Skitter is correct, doing both is the way to go.
Tagger... yup .. BM=BoatMan now
I will say this... I still like the feel of reeling in a fish, with my feet on the sand better, not a knock at all on boat fish,
Boat Fish Count 
... just a personal preference, but, to get your "fish fix"... go skiffin'.. you really don't need a big boat.. Flap proved that to me.. and Thank You for that Steve!
