Surf-caster

Epert surf-caster Bud Oliver, who can toss a plug more than 150 yards, begins his cast with the rod straight forward.

Ken Lauer, primo surf-caster at the Outer Banks of North Carolina was also a great help, as was Joel Arrington, well-known low-country outdoor writer.

Some journal entries maybe raw and unrefined, others inspirational and detailed, but all show the truth and unbridled passion of what it is to put in your time as a true surf-caster, and maybe you can learn something from it.
