well, i added a few new, or new to me, things in the surf this year.
Aquaskinz - i started a thread just to cover how much i LOVE this jacket!
AQUASKINZ
BM danny - sweet rolling swim. very castable, well made plug. oh, and the fish like it too!
#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& Toona Bomb - very good casting ability. you can work it slow enough to entice bass, but it has the durability to outlast anything a blue bastage can throw at it.
Van Staal surf bag - without a doubt the BEST surf bag i have ever used! i have tried just aout every bag on the market, and i even made a few of my own. this bag is far above anything else. lots of space for big plugs, very secure velcro closure, and it is light enough, even full of plugs, to not be too fatigueing.
Spiderwire Stealth - a very good replacement for whiplash. i have used 65# on both spinning and conventional tackle and i am very pleased. it casts great and is very durable. it is a bit thicker than comporable whiplash, but it resists wind knots better and stands up better to rocks.
Yo-Zuri Hybrid - i was quite suprised with this line! i spooled 30# on my 7000c3's, and 25# on my VS's and it has performed flawlessly. the 30# is some of the hardest mono to break that i have ever used. this stuff really stands up well to rocks, too. it has replaced berkley trilene as my mono of choice! my only problem is finding a shop that stocks it in the larger spools.
as i think of some other stuff i have tried, i will add it in. so, what have you liked or not liked that you tried this year?
