i'll be honest, as a guy who has always been land locked, i think boats are cheating. and would i cheat if i could? hell yes! and plan on hopefully doing just that this year.
Wait a second here now, you misquoted me and then pinned it on DZ.
What I did say is certain guys are serious about results, regardless of the method used. This means they would do whatever is necessary to put them in the best position to meet their goals.
The experienced, accomplished surfcaster realizes that even though there may be many fish about, it doesn't equate to them catching. The reasons could be countless. When you choose to commit yourself fully to shore fishing, your inherent understanding should be that you will come up empty handed many nights, even when your boat fishing brethren are bailing fish just out of casting range.
