this is my introduction and fishin report combo. first and foremost i am extremely grateful for the abundance of information and knowledge that is shared on this site and i will try to contribute my part . so with that being said..........my girlfriend and i were going camping up at jalama beach with some friends so i decided some surf fishing would be needed. i grabed some half ounce weights, number six hooks and some fish crack (hehe i laugh using that term), also brought along some assorted swim baits, cast masters, and yo-zuri's i already had. got there the first day and immediately headed to water with the intention of catching my first surf fish and within 10 minutes that milestone had been reached :Big Grin: my girlfriend watches for about an hour until the itch is too much and jumps right next to me. long story short the fishing was excellent, perch were biting so well i didnt fish for anything else the whole time. best fishing was during mid day which is when i would sneak away from my friends to do some fishing. didnt bother measuring them but the fish were a very healthy size. the best part was that the best area to fish was closest to our campsites and that my girl enjoyed fishing.
this was my first in the surf, walleye or shiner?
