Living ten minutes from the beaches on the outer cape helps and being able to forgo the needs of the wife and kids and fish six out of seven nights helps a great deal. Once you get the read on the fish you can stay on them for however short or long a period the bass decide to grace the beach. These days out on the outer cape those days are few and far between. Being able to be Johnny-on-the-spot, besides being a halfway knowledgable striper fisherman puts it all together. Plus a little local hero worship gets you a call when others don't. Some big fish were caught that's for sure, but really there were not that many. If guys who caught the biggest were asked to compare fishing for large now to the late 70's, early 80's I am sure they would tell you it sucks now as to compared to then. Gotta be there when the fish are there, plain and simple.
