like NIB said use the water and surf to get it into the suds or in close to the jetty never hit them in the face with a bright white light they will freak out what do you need to see anyways?you will know when the fish is in reach.grab the leader lightly and as NIB said stear the fish into you where you can safely lip it at that time the fish has given up enough that the light won't freak it out much.

Back up the beach if you can because this decreases the angle of your rod to the fish. The greater the angle the more likely it is to pop the hook. I always loosen my drag when the fish is in close incase it decides to run or roll.

not being a funny guy..but you have to know your own limitations and what you can do ,,then develop a system that works for you .. If you have been a stone mason for 20 yrs. and posses a death grip.. can crush walnuts with out the cracker,,you probabaly have no problem grabbing and controlling the fish .. If your cutting hair for a living you probably want to drag the fish on dry land ..

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
