Hey guys, haven't been on here for a while and it's good to be back! I would like to start of with a big thank you to the SWAT team for putting together the amazing event we had recently. It was so much fun and I stocked up on surf fishing knowledge from all the members there. I'll hopefully becoming next year!
Anyway, HG7 sparked a new intrest for me, that new intrest is surf fishing. Not including HG7, I've gone surf fishing about 20ish times, and have caught 2 fish, a surf perch and a shovel nose guitar fish. Both were caught and an LC. I was hoping to change my luck at HG7 but almost everyone had the same result. After this event, I was walking home with 2 Lucky Crafts and a BPS card(Thank you so much SWAT team). I immediatly hopped on, and bought 6 new hooks for my new LCs. Now here are my questions.
1. Can I get away with 2 hooks on each LC or is it important to have all3 (I would skip the middle hook if I did run with 2)
2. I have an old abu gracia reel with 12 lb XXX Izor line, should I countinue using this or switch to a Lexa 300 that is just laying around?
3. If I were to switch reels, what line would you guys recommend?
4. My rod is a 7'10" Med Heavy Line Weight 12-25 Lure Weight 3/8-1 0z (rather light rod) Its a cranking stick.
Thank you so much to all the guys who helped put together HG7 and thank you for answering the questions!
