Been hitting the surf in GI since i was old enough to drive... My father was strict but that was one thing he always let me do...haul *** with some buddies and go camp on the beach in GI for the weekend... We would always wait for light south winds for a few days to hit the surf (preferably SW), and I have been following that protocol ever since. Rarely has it failed me, as the light south winds push clean gulf water to the beach. My question is why do the guys here that post on fishing the Holly beach area like a north wind? Obviously this makes for lighter surf, but is there any other reason? Kinda curious as I will be moving to the LC area in a couple months, and although I do most of my fishing out of a boat, there is something to be said about standing waist deep in the gulf, toes in the sand, watching the sun come up, and having trout blow up on a topwater! So I definitely plan on fishing the surf out there in the future. BTW, heading to GI tom or Thurs, and leaving the boat behind (going against my protocol with recent light N winds, lol). If anyone wants to join me, shoot me a PM.
