Anyone who has a lot of years at it and claims differently is full of crap IMO. In the last five years I would say the fishing(surf) has been good to great when compared to the long term average.
How about July 2004? 4 and a half weeks,three nights a week minimum on the backside. Three two pound bluefish and one 47 inch bass caught in the glare of headlights on a needlefish. I kept thinking why do I do this to myself?

Why even try.........
