Hey guys, Bama Beach Bum here!
I have an insider tip that will take your surf fishing experience to the next level! Are you tired of struggling to find the best fishing spot on the beach? Well, I have a tactic that will help you locate fish on day one, regardless of your skill level in reading the beach. I call it "Zone Awareness," and it's a game-changer!
Here's how it works: Instead of randomly casting your bait and hoping for the best, target specific distances or "zones" with each cast. By testing different water depths, you can identify where the fish are biting and establish a pattern. It's simple, effective, and will have you reeling in your catches in no time!
To implement Zone Awareness, I recommend using three surf fishing setups. Place one bait as far as you can cast, another at a medium range, and the last one just a short distance from the beach. This way, you're exploring three separate zones simultaneously.
Pay close attention to the bites or catches that occur in these different zones. Keep track of the cast placement for successful catches so that you can replicate the same depth in your subsequent casts. If you catch a desired species in a particular zone, consider moving one of your other baits to that same distance from the beach. This process allows you to adapt to changing patterns and maximize your catch rate throughout your fishing session.
Stay Bummy!
