Surfers and surf fishermen like the same big water.Since it is not an every day occurance, they both are passionate about being there to take advantage of it ,and neither one is willing to give it up. Personally ,I have fished in big water right among surfers and found that they don't bother the fish too much. In fact they have occasionally told me that there were fish out there.We can co-exist with them,you just have to time your casts and keep an eye on them.They are gone when it gets dark too.

I usually toss a 4 ounce Hopkins (or the equivalent size Point Jude) or a brightly colored pencil in the 3 ounce vacinity they may get the message....if that doesn't do the trick...some good old fashioned foul language and name calling will!  I hate surfers that do that....ignorant bastards!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

A little courtesy....if I was fishing there and they showed up and did not extend me the courtesy of the spot given that I was there.....its just downright rude! I would not show up and fish where they were surfing!!!!
