Title: Pier Fishing Flagler Beach
Post by: jgp12000 on March 26, 2022, 11:24:22 AM
Years ago I was at the Flagler Beach pier eating seafood , after we ate we walked to the end of the pier and these
3 guys were fishing as a team it appeared one would cast out a bait and another would cast out catch his line and drag it to a certain "honey hole" I suppose. They were so busy and working in unison, I wasn't about to stop and ask about this technique.  I didn't see any kites involved, but with all their efforts I figured there must be a great reward at the end of the line? Has anyone else done or seen this?

I think you're referring to a pin rig. One line is an anchor. The other is the fighting line clipped to the anchor line. It releases on a strike.

Thanks for the info F350, by the way my 2016 XLT Supercrew engine (2.7 Ecoboost) timing gear components fell apart at 58k-warranty repair.2 weeks later I was getting an intermittent low oil pressure warning. It would return to normal after 30 seconds or after a restart. ran great always, anywho, it took the local Ford shop 6 months to work me in? I assumed something electrical a simple sending unit maybe? They called the next day & said I needed a new engine, luckily still under warranty or would have been $9k.I like the 2.7 power and mpg, but after this ordeal kinda wish I got another V8.I guess with a F350 no worries for you...
I have only owned Ford trucks it's all I know.
