So this weekend we tried out getting some Garrick for the first time. I must say it is super exciting I guess because of the danger involved ( we has humans are crazy

)
Unfortunately we did not get any, if maybe the more experienced guys can point out if we doing it incorrectly or how we can improve our chances.
We found what looked like suitable bank just in front of the breakers. We reversed into the surf so that if a swell picked up we could get the hell out of dodge ASAP. We had 2 live baits out on single hooks through the top lip. Casted them into our desired area and then free spooled to move away from the surf. What we found was that the off shore wind moved as away from the surf at a rapid rate of knots. We kept one reel on free spool & the other witha very light drag, what we found is that the bait on free spool stayed in the surf area. How can we combat the boat moving the boat away and at the same time keeping the baits in the desired area?
