We tried the North vs South threads so why not give a surf section a try. Obviously the next few months it will be slow but come the spring it will pick up.
If I have surf questions I search surf based forum sites that are so so. It would be nice to have it all here and like Kevin said there are a lot of people not on here for that reason.

I love surf fishing but a section is not needed on this site. Look at all the nonsense that occurs on those other boards that have a surf fishing section. Post the report in the salt water section. Why complicate things and ruin a nice clean board. Keep adding stuff and it gets overwhelming.

And if the Surf Fishing section lives up to every other Surf Fishing board out there Leif would get so much crap for posting that picture..."Spot Burn" would be more common that "Slot Fish" on here. (I do like that pic though)

Let them ruin the other boards out there along with Facebook and tackle shop sites.

I agree that simplicity is better, but the problem is a lot of other sites do not have very good variety. One stop shop fishing forums is not very common. There's the surf sites and then there's the boat sites and then there's the crappy kayak sites.

My personal opinion... Would be really nice to have a surf section and a kayak section. Would also bring a lot of guys from the crappy kayak site that crashes every few days and a lot of surf fisherman can focus on whats going on from land and not have to sift through posts from boats. A lot of guys just want to log into 1 site and maybe NJF can be that monster? Just my 2cents.

There an idea. A surf/kayak forum.

I don't do either, but would like to read reports

I surf/kayak fish often

We could always post and add to it

Bump it to the top

And in essence create a surf page by just adding to the original post

85% of posts are boat updates, 15% of posts are surf fishing and other topics, i stopped checking on this site regularly for that reason, and of course it's obvious because of the season...

since fall / striper season, i've been routinely checking this forum and all i've seen were party boat posts, nothing against party boats, but i don't have the luxury of dishing out $60 bucks (plus tip) every fishing trip, let alone double that amount a trip on smaller charters. Yes, i get it, this is their livelihood, but I do agree that there should be a section for us surf guys.

A bag of clams and six pack under $20, and no time limit sounds like a better deal to me.

I don't post often, so my opinion really doesn't matter, but there is a certain environment or climate on this site that other pages seem to lack. It's a tighter knit group or community here. Too much drama and nonsense on the others.
