I've had good luck with the 3 to 4 inch storm shads but will try the fin-s-fish this spring as well.

HAMMER TIME!

Nah, Joe, I was trying to say you're right on the beans - but I guess it's not a secret anyway...

In fact, there's a couple of spring spots we oughta hit that I've been thinking about a lot lately - and one of them is that spot where I found some very nice bass feeding on 'foot-longs' last year early in the season

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Season starts up early here like end of march- april the flats in the bay warm on a low tide an on the top u can get em pretty good wit bait. used to be a pretty good secret but its blown up the last few yrs.then they go up river to spawn an thats when i have fun wit jigs.the warm land mass against the cool ocean makes a eerie fog seems to be pretty regular the last few yrs.Thats why i call it gorrila's in the mist got my best fish that time last yr.An my buddie got a 60#er.come june its a fish per herring routine till the bunks show up then large fat bottom girls on big pencils. My favorite.

Eben Keep a log. the information u will gather from it later in life will be invaluable as ur memory will fade.Things change from yr to yr but overall U'll see the patterns develope an U'll be a much better student of the sport.

Nib, yes I keep a log. each year I buy a new notebook and keep adding and adding to it as I fish....The Key is to understand bait cycles.. if you can understand what the forage is, i believe it becomes alot easier to catch big bass-
