one note about the surf: the wind almost always seems to be coming from
the "wrong" direction *LOL*

The wind blew from SW and WSW for 7 days straight, which made us work
for casts on Nauset Beach. On the other hand, for the 4 days that
Peter and
his son were there, we had the most consistently good fishing & low
surf I ever
ran into on that beach. Basically you could walk about 300-400 yards
from the
parking lot at just about any time of the day & tide and catch fish
consistently,
day after day, with a heck of a lot of "hang time" in the water on
every cast. It
was amazing.
