I have lurked here for years. I am active on a few other boards that are centered on the areas I fish (Jersey, DelMarVa, NC) but I enjoy keeping my mind open and current to what other areas are doing.
I have been surf fishing for 35 years and fish on a highly competitve team in New Jersey tournaments. For my own fun and enjoyment I fish Island Beach State Park and Brigantine with trips south a few times a year. I also distance cast and enjoy making rods and other tackle. I bait fish 75% of the time and my tackle and techniques show that. I am a proponent of modern spinning tackle as being on par and even eceeding the performace of conventional gear for casting and fish-fighting.
I would like to try the Ditch and the Cape and
maybe the Islands (ferry toll
) this upcoming year, some of the action up there sounds mighty enticing!
I've been registered since May of '04 and I have just started posting here in the "
long cast spinning reels" thread; I hope I have some worthwhile info to share.
