Hmmmmm, good question. My guess is that it would be a nightmare in the surf. I could be wrong, but just based on what I've seen, line control might be tough, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't at least try. Of course, if the surf is flat, then you're in business.

On the other hand, if you're fishing bays and mangroves, where the water isn't crashing around you, I think it would be a great tool to have at your disposal. Heck, give it a try and report back to us!!!
