Hey, you crazy Italian bastage,
Google search "New England Stripers" and buy the book.
The last section talks about how surf fishing and surf clubs developed.
OK, time for the gym,
Lata,
Rick

I'd say surfcasting was invented l o n g time ago to feed one's family. When did it edge into sport in addition to feeding a family? And when did it become more expensive to go surfcasting than to feed your family??  |

For all intent and purposes,native americans were probably the first surf fisherman but as John states they were most certainly not fishing for sport.It became a form of recreation about the end of the civil war.Thats when the New England bass clubs started but only the elite fished.Common men were catching Channel bass in the surf down south and in Texas.This is all around 1860-70.The US Government also appointed its first Fish Commissioner around this time. |

Here's a link to a club claiming to be the oldest in the US.
http://asburyparkfishingclub.com/about-us/about-us.html
I'm guessing the term "surfcaster" was coined in the 30's or 40's.
Sounds better than shore fisherman right?
Kind of like janitor = maintenance engineer...  |
