With all the experienced and dedicated surf fishermen and women on this board, I KNEW someone would suggest that. But as those of you who've been surf fishing forever know, that's something that is often easier said than done. All my time and money over the last dozen years has been invested in boats, boat rods, boat spots, boat methods and techniques. Several years ago, my boat was outta commision for an extended period so I decided to try some shore fishing. Went to WallyMart and picked up a coupla cheapo casting rods. Went to my tackle shop and grabbed some terminle tackle and bait, and headed oit to look for a spot. I worked my way from Fairhaven to the eastard and ended up at the DITCH, of all places. Needless to say, with zero knowledge of surf fishing, and MINUS zero knowledge of ditch fishing, I was not successful at catching fish, although me and the Missus had a wonderful day at the ditch. I learned as much or more about fishing the shore and/or ditch from 4 or 5 hours of reading posts here, than I learned on that day of fishing. Hell, until yesterday, I didn't even know it was CALLED "The Ditch." Nonetheless, BassWipe, just your mere suggestion that I give it another go has got my insides twirlin, and my hands twitchin'! Now WHERE did I stash those surf rods...
