Hello

[deadstroke]

Just joined the forum, but been fishing the surf for several years.
latley been having very limited success with everytyhing I try, from top water to live bait .
so i guess its time to learn some new tricks. So if anyone has some tips im all ears.
Im using a breakaway 10' 6"w/ abu 6600 ( which i love dearly, thanks nick)
and distance isnt a problem, and several other rods for short to medium distance.
and still have been getting zilched, cant figure what im doing wrong!
so bring on tips if you would, I can use all the help i can get.

When are you going to the beach again?

There will hundreds of different rigs and techniques this weekend with Sharkathon going on

[deadstroke]

I will be in the surf early sat and sun morning.
starting with top water and live bait,, should be just south of 4wd only sign,
providing its not to crowded.

Hey Mike, curious to where you live at? Yes, you are correct somewhat. I wouldn't throw the weight in a field, the nose cone won't break unless it hits a rock or like. You would mostly likely break the tines off though. Not sure what size weight you want to throw, but I would recommend just buying some pyramid weights from Academy for practicing with.
