I'm a Surfcaster and don't boat fish, so telling me there are plenty of fish off-shore 8+ miles is like recommending I go to a convent or nunnery to find a date. Not going to happen.

Those big girls need to breed (Stripers not Nuns) and spend time inshore being anadromous. Even if they are following the bait off shore, I still feel the lack of fish and BAIT in-shore is troubling.

I know the Virginia Beach area having been stationed there while in the Navy in the 80s. Great fishing area, Surf fished the beaches and the Bay bridge pier. Caught the most bluefish I have ever caught on a beach south of Damn Neck Naval Base where I was stationed. Not many Stripers around back then either, of course maybe they were all of shore back then too.

Some say that there's a fine line between a Surfcaster and some idiot just standing on the beach.
