These conditions have become my white whale. I'm a surf guy and this time of year was always infuriating to me. I'd be flinging double treble minnows into a 30mph NE wind and wondering why I can get past the bar. Slowly start to understand wind and tide. Move to some sheltered spots, use bucktails more, stop thinking fish aren't around in the wash. I still get humbled and feel like an absolute rookie, but there is something about fishing from shore when some dip#^&#^&#^&#^& local news crew is trying to hype up another storm and getting a few fish while they are trying freak us out and keep us in front of the boob tube. Be safe mi amigos. Know your limits and give yourself a buffer zone from that limit, but get out there and enjoy.
