I don't consider myself a "sharpie" I do consider myself a good surf fisherman and I catch a lot of fish. There are no secrets that I can share but there are a couple of things that I do that have helped me.
I know the water I fish. I have studied the places I go and I know exactly what tide and wind I need to be successful at any given spot so I don't go to a low tide SW wind spot when the tide is on the way up and the wind is NE.
I sharpen all my hooks all the time.
I do little things like after I tie an Improved Clinch knot, I always throw an overhand knot on just in case...
I always strip back about 10 yards of line everytime I fish. There are always nicks.
I fish plugs, eels, rigged and live, sloooooowly. I read someone said that they do a 10 count for every revolution of the reel handle. I do also. Try it sometime. You will not believe how slow it really is.
Lastly and most important if you fish rocky places, always pick where you will land a fish before you start fishing. More good fish are lost because guys don't have a place to land a fish. All IMO
