Be prepared when going down the cape to fish the backside beaches for the Skeeters. They will suck you dry. The beach is also loaded with sand fleas and No-Seeums. Add the 3 of them togther out on the beach when the wind lays down like the past few nights and even catching fish won't help forget them. I can't remember having to use bug spray before last night on the beach. They are nasty, so don't forget the spray. Just be careful not to spray it on your line, goretex jacket, or breathable waders because it will eat the water proofing away.
On an other note, what are you supposed to do with the new Off lotion that everyone is raving about. I wouldn't want to get any on my lures, bait or line, but how are you supposed to avoid this when you have to spread it on and now have bug spray on yor hands. ?
