I would fish around the left line closer to shore, or if possible between the two closer lines where the bar bows toward shore. Notice how the color change is a little more dramatic. Sharper contrast-faster depth change. I would fish behind the bar along the dropoff.

I have seen you say this before.So Ilooked around and all the store bought doubles seem to have too much tackle attached to them with beads and crimps and swivels - They scare me off, so I assumed they'd do the same to fish

Do you use these with any success or tie your own somehow?

Thanks

hey guys, can someone take a picture or describe the best way to make a leader like this? i am a total newbie. Thanks!! do you actually tie separate pieces of flouro together or do you make loops from one piece of leader material? oh, and what size hooks do you recommend? thanks

Thanks, Jpurdy and Knotayacht. We are on the same page. And from your notesI see where I went wrong. Mainly bait and leaders, I think. We worked near shore troughs and washouts with light tackle and a couple of long poles with a cut bait enticer out past the second bar. The wind was out of the North, calm, butlow non-moving tidefor the4 hours we spent Thurs..

It was good beach day , though...

There will be other days though, huh, Sharkbait?
