Acvtually when the going gets tough I retreat to the boat, get my fish fix and then head back to the beach. Tying direct is one tactic but on the outer Cape in the country I like to fish I play the moon not the tide. The shadow line theory works and tide has lttle bearing on it, it's that dark shadow that creates a sense of security for the bass.
Lure wise I might scale down or then agin I might ramp up. At this time of year 9 times out of ten it will be a needlefish, something I know that is near and dear to your heart.
