new spots
How do you approach and fish a spot you have never been to? Do you take a minute to look it over, or bomb right in and cast a line?
The reason I'm asking is because over the weekend me Eben and my brother in law showed a kid from boston a south county spot where we were fishing. The surf was up and wind was howlin and this spot has a strong undertow not to mention that it wasn't a gradual dropoff but very steep. So we are all standing a little back from where the waves are crashing, and this kid comes down with his fly rod and wades right in. I start yelling at him and so does Eben, then I go tell and him what the deal was.
What would have happened if nobody was there to yell at him?
