Hey rodbender,
It sounds like you had a really nice day on the water.. you were fishing shrimp under a cork while you were wading the surf?

Hey rodbender,
when you rig up for trout, do you put any crimp weights on the line near the hook? Are you using a popping cork? What size and kind of hooks are you using also. I sure would like to land some specks like that. Do you mess around with the depth of leader off the cork.Any info would be helpful. Thanks, Pearlandpup
