    Pay attention to what history has taught us or be prepared to relive it again

    Great video and explanation surfstix. This describes Island Beach to a "t". If more guys would take the time to learn these simple clues they would catch more fish. I was fishing the park the other morning. A guy all geared up like he came from a J Crew fishing catalog couldn't catch a thing while I was getting an occasional blue. He said "I don't understand how you guys catch fish here. There is no structure!". I said all you have to do is read the beach and the water and you will find it. He looked at me like I had 2 heads. You can't fix stupid. Some guys think fish will magically fall out of the sky and onto there hooks.

    Didn't you write a detailed piece on this? I think I remember reading it somewhere here.
