Added A Crate Today
Finished up my crate http://imgur.com/a/ggJO6#4WIBUUr How do you guys think she looks? I am about to take her out now to see how I like the position the rods are in for casting. The only things I'd like to add are a fishfinder (got a line on a lowerance elite 4) and maybe a scotty baitcast rod holder for the slide tracks. I also saw this http://i.imgur.com/yBgMwnp.jpg?1 and was thinking a bucket might be cool for bucktails when I'm out in the salt and want to scale down on what I carry. Also, wanted to get some thoughts on anchor or stake out poles. Thanks

Recommend Me A Kayak
I own a 115 ride and I'm liking it. It's a really wide boat which I thought would make it a very slow boat. It won't win any races but is by no means slow. I haven't had any really problems out in the wind w it either. Seems to track pretty nice too. Honestly I'd take b@sscrzy's advice and go fish out of a few or at least paddle some before you buy.

Putting Together A Surf Bag
I've always just thrown chunks of cutbait when fishing for stripers for the surf and jetty. This year I want to move away from bait but I am not sure what plugs to add and colors weights etc. Bucktails are the most versatile I've been told but I'm not quite proficient at them yet. I fish the coast of NJ from lbi down to the Cape and bay. Can anyone give me some ideas of what to throw and also how your technique changes in the fall run vs the spring? Thanks

Would This Be A Good Beginner's Baitcasting Combo?
You can probably use that set up for a number of different presentations. Some people prefer moderate action for baits with treble hooks but honestly it's all a matter of preference and using what works for you. Good luck

fluke. Bucktail and gulp Penny 3" shrimp or chart swimming mullet. Drop it straight, cast it, whatever. As long as it's on the bottom bouncing you'll get them. Floro leader helps. Good luck
