The simple reason being he had intimate knowledge of the beach we were fishing and could place his bait where the fish were holding nearly every cast.
So you could question if this was really skill, or just experience...but if you're learning from your experiences then what's the difference?

I never said bait fishing was a bad thing, Because I am a 50/50 fisherman, I fish with live herring/alewife in the spring, cut bait and sea worms the rest of the year. I also use my share of plugs and plastics. you have to be a well rounded fisherman and know when and where to use what. I have no problem with bait fishing or people who use bait 100% of the time. I just think it is all luck when a new comer or kid throws a chunk of bait out in the middle of the day and catches a 50 pounder.
