If it wasn't for beginners luck I wouldn't be in debt with all the gear I bought and out most free nights in the spring summer.....

Me and my ex were at the beach I had some fresh water gear in my trunk along with a cheap shore caster I got at a yard sale that day. we were bored and figured may as well wet a line. So the both of sitting on the jetty in Hampton using 6' fresh rods with 10# test and a 8 ft shore caster with ??# on it and some hooks and weights we got from the tackle shop near us we start chunking clams....

Not even a half hour out she pulls in this huge fluke on the fresh rod and about a half hour after I pulled a huge striped bass had no scale didn't even have a tape this fish went from my shoulder to past my knee.....

Caught a few more smaller ones that day but I can tell you this that was 8 years ago and since then I've been back to that jetty many times and only pulled crabs out.

so beginners luck got me hooked
