nice job beating the skunk. which day were you out there? i went out on saturday and was greeted by 6-8 foot waves too. first spot was littered in sea weed and couldn't get in a decent cast. next spot was much nicer but nothing was biting. i was going for perch though using gulp camo sand worms. tried a small live sand crab for a bit with no bites either. what bait were you using?

I was using the biggest Crabbies I could find!!!
Bigger crabbies bigger Perch!!!
BUT !!! :Rolls Eyes: more half- bite -offs too !!!

oh cool, thanks for the info on the big crabs. I've always tried to find smaller ones (not tiny) thinking they would fit nicely into the perch's mouths :Smile: i didn't think they would go for the bigger crabs. i'll be trying that next time.
