Where would you take that one cast? What lure/bait be on the end of your line? What would the weather be like? What month would it be?

Would you bet it all against a single retrieve of a lure, or would you let a chunk soak for maximum exposure?

What would you do?
Same place we fished eels together a few weeks ago. Same tide. On or about May 15th with a 9" tsunami...

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

I told you I use the tsunami's when you where a rattle fan..
I was gonna say next to you throwin eels in oct..
I have a jig thing believe it or not I prefer over the Pencil thing.I can pretty much pick out on a tide chart when and where I will get another good fish next yr.I have done it 4 years in a row..While it usually takes a few cast's.A few years ago I did it on one cast..

FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..

if you had a gun to my head for

one single cast and you were gonna

pull the trigger, if i didn't brang a keeper or bigger
on the retrieve,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,then i'd have to go with;

Sept's New
2-4 foot rollers
certain UDL on Cape Ann
'bout 3 hours before dead Low
pissing, abit, ~with no fire water~
after chumming for an hour or so prior
to tossing the head half of a fresh pogie
chunker style,,,,,,,,loaded with a snelled 8/0
Gamakatt right between these two VW sized boulders
at the base of this trough that dumps several gallons of surf
with each wave into what should be my life-saving spot to CAST to.

then simply wait for the Big Gurls to hit IT!!
give her her BOW, let her ruuuuuun; then put
her at yer feet. and if i do, do i get to snuff YOU??

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
