Braided line by far.For instance..I can't imagine what it would be like to jig the canal without it.I know I would not reach a few holes that make up my favorite locales without it.
Breakaways are nice..i don't think the difference from my 706 Penn's and my 300 Van Stahls are as great as the difference between both of them reels and My Saltiga..That thing is a marvel in engineering..I also agree with the breathable waders.anyone who has made some good amrches in the rubber,canvas or neopreme know's what I'm talking about.It's like fishing in your PJ's..
There certainly is a greater variety of things surf related.It used to be you had to be creative and make things if you wanted to customize your gear.Now you can pretty much buy whatever you need.Never mind the choices in hooks and plugs.
I have not seen any storm type shads on the list...I call em idiot baits.I was a big rubber guy,I still am one..They went and made it easy for those who had no clue..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
