It's pretty big here already.
Depends on your fishing style and where you can pull it off, but your options will be limited.

i just left first beach and swells are pretty serious. They shut down the beach. Only open for surfers. I think a couple spots could be fishable though, but as any places out front its a wash.

Bart, check you PM's - basically what Pete said and then some
|
"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.
