Ditto. No one said that you HAD to stay in the surf. Get a few guys together and get a boat. They fishing has been nothing short of spectactular.
I've had mornings with so many 20+pound fish I got tired of putting fish back, just went home. I'm not bragging either. It has been literally "stupid" fishing. Live line and you have a 20 to 30# bass. It has gotten a little more challenging as the water has warmed up and the Bass are further South and deeper so you need to 3 way or rubber core sinker to get to them but it's still "stupid" fishing.
I will never go back to the surf.

No boat, back in the suds.

That's awesome Paul! Can't say the same for me--spots I've been fishing have not produced like they did last year!
Don't get me wrong--I've gotten a lot of real nice fish-- but certainly have not done as well as you...I like hearing that guys like you are catching though, because it motivates me to put my time in and get better!

Bad, bad, bad...put in more time this year than the last 10 years past.
After what happened last week, though, any time out is a blessing.
This fact itself will probably lead to more fish.

As I said in a earlier post not good close to and off the shore for me I think the big bass are still out with the pogies, but I think they will start moving closer to the shore this week. I will be hitting it hard this weekend and keep you posted.
