CB, I was surfcasting in that madness. I was favoring areas were the 30 mph winds were to my back[nice to get a 300 ft. cast]Right out in front seas were 6/7 ft crashing the beach. Wreckless. On Long Islands No. shore anything out of the North can be brutal. Seemed to be perfect striper conditions just had alot of shorts and bluefish...again nothing to brag about. soon...
