All right, all right, being that close to the ocean can call for some heavier line. Besides, tidal fish are aggressive, very aggressive I wouldn't be suprised with the right water conditions you couldn't hook them on rope! But out west here, we get to fight them monster hogs vertically in the deeper holes (20-45ft) with 10-15 lb test where the current isn't so strong and if they do run we can chase them with the sleds. But you must say in low water conditions that they can get a bit finicky if being pounded on and will tend to shy from larger diameter lines.
I want to get back out there, I'd still recommend backbouncing, or bobberfishing eggs or eggs/shrimp though.
