This is the third in my "View From the Beach" series of videos on learning to read water / wave action and beach structure. This video focuses on identifying holes, points, lips & rips and their various combinations . Sorry it took so long to get done and thanks for waiting.

    I was staying at a hotel on Moonstone beach this last week. First two days I went out and threw bait for a couple of days and me and my daughter might have gotten 4 bites. I went back the the room and accidentally found your YouTube channel. We went out the next morning and I actually read the beach the way you explained it. My first cast...bam and brought it in! I ended up getting bites on almost every cast and landing a lot! I went up the coast to another beach and same thing. The next day, went out again and landed a dozen more. The info you shared completely re-wired my brain on how to look at the surf. I think I've gotten lucky on previous tips to my local beaches (I live in SoCal) and will apply the knowledge from now on. Thanks for sharing, it's the surf fishing info I've never received previously!

    Rich - I've been fishing for years and have found great benefit from your youtubes. Thanks you for your efforts man, they mean a lot.

    This would have to be the best explanation I have seen. Thanks.
  • @AccountingTutor
    Your lessons are succinct and logical, and the videos are well produced. Thanks for taking the time to think through the topics and present them so well in this excellent series of tutorials. I'm about to leave for 3 weeks in Florida and I'll be flyfishing the beaches a lot. I'm a midwestern fresh water fisher who knew nothing about beach structure. Your videos will help me get off to a great start.
  • Thank you so much for this valuable information and taking the time to share this with others!

    Absolutely incredible you are a natural a supernatural you deserve a special category at the Oscars or the Emmys not one word is wasted on BS every word is to the point clear concise articulate. The graphics are as minimal as possible to do their job perfectly. By imparting this information you have fulfilled a childhood wish. And to have done it all for free simply to pass on the information makes it an incredible gift. Thank you so much

    Just moved to southern california and I must say I would be lost if it weren’t for you Mr Troxler. I stumbled onto your work on youtube while still living in the northeast. Your illuminations are truly maxims that stand the test of our physical world, which is great! Hahaha. Thanks again, tight lines👍❤️😎
