oh man, I grew up around the ocean, always going to the beach for vacation with the family, but we never fished once. It wasn't until a few years ago that I decided fishing would be fun to try....for me it was just more of an excuse to spend time by the sea. I had no idea how addicted I would become!! I do have to thank TattooBob for posting something on another site with a link to this site, as it was not even on my radar before and it has since opened up a whole new world for me!! an addicting, sleepless world!

i guess it was probably my dad that took me out first. parents got divorced when I was young and my earliest memories of fishing are with my mom. I was lucky enough to live by a lake that I could walk to and started fishing alot once I was old enough to go by myself. I started fishing the surf on vacations to Maine as a kid. My uncle and I would throw chunks from the beach and mostly catch skates. After a few years we started to figure some things out and get into some bass. I lost a big fish one morning and that event pretty much changed my life. I went out to buy a book to try to learn what I did wrong and ended up with "Striper Surf". Since then I've read everything I could find on surfcasting (including this site) and spent tons of time and money trying to get good at it.
