One tip I will give you is leave the water in your bait tank The ballast will help you out.I had drained my tank and had a monster fish in my lap in Med-Heavy surf.I have since landed in bigger surf with water in the tank and it helps.I lost some very high end gear.That Shimano Calcutta rod is now a cult classic,they were made in washington and go for big bucks when they come up for sale.Not to mention losing 2 2spd avets a brand new diawa sealine and a graphite usa rod and my glasses.I figure about a $2K loss.lesson learned.I rod podded my big game and can get 8'ers in there and leash the 90J.Big Thanks to the BWE community for offering all the loaner gear.
