ED,
Cool and THANKS for letting us know about the book. Do you have a copy that you've thumbed through yet?? Compared to using the heavy weight/sand spike setup, I like the light line style also for casting grubs and sandcrabs. Robert has spanked a few surf fish further down south recently also, exact location unknown to protect the innocent and he ain't talkin'

Lets get together soon and do some surf fishing to kill some time locally or a bit further south. Talk to you soon,
Perry
