Hey there dball,

I'm a newbie to surf fishing the long beach, belmont beach areas but I am moderately satisified with the 9' 7wt flyrod/spinning rod conversion I made as you can hold your line up off the water better.(wave curls or peaks) As someone else said, that reduces the junk you'll get hung up on but it also reduces the drag/resistance the line imparts on the bait your throwing. That is, helping the natural swimming action of the bait.

I suspect that using the thinnest line possible, (I am using 2lb florocarbon so I'm making grub makers happy) as the line cuts through the waves and water easier, also has a positive effect in keeping the presentation natural and the bait in the water longer.
