Norm here.37.Been fishing the Island all my life.Really didn't start taking up plugging and using surf specific gear until the turn of the century and it is now my life.I'm torn between surf fishing and Nascar racing but I make room for both and for my girl on occassion

.My best bass is a 26lber.I've hooked into many larger but I seem to be cursed and just can't land that big one.Though when I was in the AF I did land a 34lb Amberjack from the Packery Channel jetty down in Corpus Christi TX!
Gear wise I've more plugs than I could possibly use and a few rod/reel setups with my most used being my Batson 1088(9') with a
Spheros 8000,it suits my style of fishing more than half the time hence it being my favorite.Though I do get a lot of use out of my 10' Quarrow with manual 704.
