Just doin a few eel jigs haven't decided.
I may check to see if i have a penis an go surf fish some real rocks..

I love the ditch.It is easy to see EEl man i s tryin to belittle the skills of a fisherman who takes fish from the big ditch.
Of coarse it's not as hard as some other type of surfcasting.
I can do both.I like both.
I can go stand on a rock reef in the middle of the south side of Montauk an take waves all night or i can go stand on a rock an thro 4-5 oz jigs jiggin he big ditch.they are not the same both of em will wear u out after night of fishin em.both can reward u with good fish.
I can hang anywhere with u bill.No doubt in my mind.i know guys that are more hardcore than I.
U should come with me a few nights will hit 3 or 4 different spots.
Thro big lead all night.If u hook a 20 lber u will want me to reel em in for ya.When a 35 takes the jig he wants to hurt it.It's like havin a orgasm to a jig guy.O ya some spots if u can't chuck that 5 oz jig 120 only holdin the rod back to 10 o'clock, u ain't gettin em.
so eat ur wheaties..
If u ask me feedin live bait to big fish in the aquarium is not surfcasting either...
U like to stir the pot thats funny but u got no sense of humor....
I think clamma is right u are a whacko.Nice topic though..

Bill.... you said it yourself.... its The Canal. Have you been drinking?

[Saltheart]

I agree with #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&. Any sissy can be a surf fisherman (folding chair , sand spike , chunkof bait , can of beer) but being a canal jigger takes a real man!

I think if you wet a line from a boat , even just one time a season , you can't call yourself a surf fisherman anymore either.

Come to think of it , I think I'm going to start calling myself a fish fisherman....is that redundant?

When Jesus gatherd his deciples , he said he was going to make them fishers of men. So I guess its OK to say fishers of fish too so fish fisherman is not redundant...I think , but I'm not sure.

Hmmmm

I do know for sure that people like Jules and Jenn cannot call themselves any kind of fisherman , regardless of where they fish. They are fisherwoman or less formally fishergirls or for the chauvanists..fisherbabes. So I guess the real question is whether they would be surf fisherbabes or shore fisherbabes if they were in the canal. yeah that's the question we need to answere.

God , I won't be able to sleep tonight with such important questions to ponder.

I better have a beer and think about this somemore!!

[fishpoopoo]

u shoulda been a lawyer saltheart

[chris L]

fishers might be politcally correct but I like fishbabes . I will have a few beers tomorrow night to ponder this more . only cause it will take me that long to get the thought to my head

[stiff tip]

the canal is a gift from the fish gods. its like nothing else we got in the northeast.tides fast tides slow , up n down , east n west. 24/7.. not the beach or surf.its the CANAL thats all

[fishman]

Us in Upper Michigan fishing the Great Lakes call it " surf fishing" I'm not saying we are right but that is what everybody here calls it.

[fishman]

Some places that have beef and fish meals call it surf and turf so is surf water and turf land?

[Rappin Mikey]

penguins is practically chickens.

This knocks it down to 30 to go. We moved up ten places in 20 minutes

Didn't bite on Nobska Light---kinda surprising

[thefishingfreak]

some people say cucumbers taste better pickled

[jkswimmer]

[What do you call dropping live bunker and eels on top of fishfinder bass? Home shopping network?] LMAO!!!!!!

[clambelly]

i would consider it surf fishing because i use the EXACT same gear in the canal as i would at nauset beach. i own 3 rods and i would and do use them all in both locations.

to me, there is no difference.

Flap - I disagree that Fishing the Sands is more challenging and thus a higher degree of surfcasting than clammoring out on rocks and ledges. Yes, the sand does move frequently but the clues are often much more prominent than when fishing from the rock & reef, especially when you have hopped a couple rocks to get to a reefline 25 feet from shore depths that hide the tell tale signs of the seabed. I feel that fishing the sand is actually easier - physically - on the body than fishing from hopped rocks (especially after a fall that is less likely on the sand to begin with). Fishing the sand also offers it's clues a little more readily than a rocky shore. A ledge typically ends close to the shorline a sandbar is typically visible as it runs parallel or angles out with it's associated structure.

Each has it's detractions and enhancements and I would say both are worthy of being high end surfcasting.

But Jawny, see it today gone tomorrow, or by the end of the tide if the weather blows east hard. You always know where the ledges, holes rocks and such no matter what the weather gods send your way. And on the beach no matter what kind of foot wear your wearing it don't help in big surf, your feet go flying. Ain't the same JAWNY NOPE NO WAY. yOU MISSED IT btw, it was judt like the old days for two nights, now it's back to mung and seals and no fish plus it was very chilly last night and I wasn't wearing my lucky underwear and forgeot to wear underwear altogether which might explain the itch today. Salt and sand and mung make for a very itchy bum.

Ok -- just cast where the arrows are! OOOOPS spot burning ?

Yur not kidding,don't forget skunks,deer and hungry racoons

I briefly spoke my .02 on the 2nd page.
This #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^& is a total hoot.He love's to toss out these (so called polls) but already has an agenda to speak of & then slams people with statements like he's on this almighty Soap box.

He too is like surf fishing..........He comes & goes with the tides.
Im looking forward to the out going tide
