Been reading on here for a few months now and decided to join up finally.  My style of fishing may be a bit different than most, since I'm just a poor boy with a big fish addiction without a boat or money to take too many charters.  So this leaves me with targeting sharks from the beach or heading out in the yak to chase nearshore kings, lings, jack crevalle, and the occasional bonita.

Aloha, e komo mai.

Don't feel bad about fishing from shore or from a kayak.  I used to have a boat and got rid of it.  Was too much like work.  Around here, most people fish from shore.  Kayak fishing is becoming very popular, and I think boat fishing is declining because of fuel prices.
I used to be in a constant state of improvement.  Now I'm in a constant state of renovation.

I'm not talkin' 'bout pleasure boatin' or day sailin'. I'm talkin' 'bout workin' for a livin'. I'm talkin' 'bout sharkin'!

No money spent on a boat = more money to spend on gear and trips.  ;D

Welcome!

Ayup.  Howdy.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

probably one of the best reels for your application is the daiwa 900H. i understand alot of guys fishing from the beach use that reel. 
send me an email at alantani@yahoo.com for questions!
