I'm not taking sides but if you have ever fished the Naps, you would know that there are only a few selected areas that produce large out there. I know someone who was out there this week, from this board, who takes large all the time. He got skunked because he couldn't get to where he needed to be due to the surge. He was with another board member who was in a wet suit and that member got a ton of large. There wasn't 50 feet between these 2 experienced surfishermen.
To say that there are fish at the Naps doesn't consititute a "spot burn", in my opinion. You really need to know the second step in fishing that place to get into good fish. Anyone, even a rookie can find schoolies out there. It took me 20 years to really figure out the Naps, so go and have fun. if you work hard enough and put your time in, you will figure it out.
BTW, it is officially 1.5 miles one way to the end from the top of the big dune.
