Sounds like ur right on target to a good/great yr.if the weather holds up an the fall progresses as usuall u should be on ur way.There's some science to it for the most part if they are there u'll get em.Tough to beat a bait with a heartbeat but u can illicit strikes many different ways.Like first light with a pencil popper.They will take this lure out of aggression.It's a excellent big fish bait..

Your right, however....in surf fishing, you never know whats there or isnt there unless you can see underwater...as long as you have done your homework and put in the time all you can hope for is a fish, the rest is up to the fish gods...and again that goes back to puttin in the time!
