grom, you little bastaaad- I miss the days of surfing two or three-a-days! good for you though, keep charging! fished San-O tonight on the longboard right before dark, surf was FLAT, got a nice 4 pound chunk checker right away and followed it up with a fat bellied 2+ pounder, both fish were dark and beautifully colored. Both fish ate the sardine colored FT, I'm really learning to love the 30 lb. Powerpro to tear through the vegetation. Pics to follow if I score this weekend and finish the roll. At least I found a use for the frickin' longboard! Oh yeah, don't be afraid to fish right up tight to the beach, the bass, butts and croaker (had a good sleigh ride last week at strands from Mr. Croaker) are found closer then you think.
