Yeah, I used to think that you had to cast as far as possible in order to catch anything. Then I realized (also by trial & error) that in the surf, deeper/farther doesn't mean bigger/better. I did some additional research, and by scouting out an area before the first cast, you can pick the most likely places. As most instructional brochures will attest, stripers like STRUCTURE.
That means jetties, bridges, points, submerges boulders etc.
I thought that it was just "a fish story" until I put the info to use, and it does help to "read the water" regardless of where you're fishing from.
I hope this helps.
Good luck, and tight lines!
