Spring Run

I came across this photo of yours truly fishing for Stripers from the beach on Nantucket. This put the flame under me for a trip to the shore to chase the Spring run of those delicious sea-dwellers.
Surf fishing is a lovely way to pass the time. A passive form of sporting pursuit. Once the line is baited with claim or bunker or bloodworm....and the cast is made...the fisherman can sit in a beach chair and enjoy a beer and a cigar while watching the tip of the rod for a strike.There are not too many better ways to decompress than fishing an evening tide from the shore.

What a great photo. One can really feel the surf.

Looks like such a great way to enjoy a vacation - spent many days in the Outer Banks watching the same scene. :)
