Thanks All!

Guys, I'm a lifelong fresh water guy and started fishing the Canal, Newport and various places on the Cape this year. I can't explain in words how much fun it's been...it's truly a great hobby.

Anyways..at the start of this year I knew nothing, and now I know next to nothing but I read the posts here all the time and I learned a crap-load of stuff from you guys. ( but having minimal practical experience I fell I don't know much)

So thanks to you all and know there are a lot of us 'lurkers' reading and learning from what you guys post...hope to see you in the surf next year. Merry Christmas.

Welcome.
Just remember, this is the internet, knowing "next to nothing" qualifies you as an authority around here.
Merry Christmas to you too......unless you fish eels in which case I hope Santa's reindeer give you a good reaming....all eight of them and Rudolf too.

WELCOME cb,

and doan ever be askeered to ask these guys anything,
good STUFF to be had here ~taken w/a grain of salt~

and they will absolutely CRUSH yer learning curve,,,,,,,,,,,

just remember the more time you spend in the surf,
the more you will be able to apply their pearls of surfwisdom!!

also, the winter is a GREAT time for doing sum reading up
on this surfcasting "hobby". there are some very GOOD how-to's,
philosophical, and historical renderings out there that will, certainly
"add sum flesh to your surfcasting bones" and increase your catch ratio rather rapidly.
and let us NOT forget Laptew's feeshnominal dvd's!! Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
