Hmmm....gonna try a new variation on the standard riggie involving a Pt Jude Wobblehead with a boneless breast of eel attached on a free-swinging hook

Talking to DZ over the winter and and watching him and Riggin' Rudy from the Edge do a couple of demos made me think......it's got potential, both shore and boat

Picked up a bunch more of the canal-style pencils over the winter and two new rods to fish them with...plan to fish metal-lips more this season, try a different rigging technique with Sluggos I saw Jim White do...

That and physical conditioning...last couple of years I'm starting to notice that the old carcass doesn't come back from the winter hiatus like it used to...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
