Hi Pete....I pretty much agree with Bills reply but at high tide i fish the areas which were foaming white water at low. Even halfway out I fish the foaming white areas and have noticed that I consistently pick up bigger fish on top of the bars than in t
he holes...As the tide continues to bottom I will then switch over to the drop offs and holes where the larger fish seem to congregate. Leave your intermediate line at home and get yourself a superfast sink shooting head like the Airflo 7 inches per seco
nd head. They cut through the waves and get you down to where the fish are....Also experiment with making casts parallel to the beach. At high tide most of the fish I catch are within the first 20 feet of surf, so try casting and retrieving your fly par
allel so that it is in the target zone longer. Here's something else....Most of the back beaches are fairly steep. As the tide starts to recede you can actually see schools of moving fish tooling along if you stay up high and wear a good pair of polaroi
d sunglasses. Hope this helps......Jeff Smith...Tip of the Cape Flyfishing..(http://www.tiac.net/users/bassman1)
