After spending the first (of hopefully) many days fishing Oyster Bay Harbor and Long Island Sound�from the shore, �I realized I will need to get a lot more distance to my salt water casting. The surf casters seemed to be throwing line out 100 yards or more. Not that they caught any fish mind you, but when the schools�come through I know my 60� to 70 foot cast will not do! Which brings me to the question of shooting heads:
�
Any sources for info?
Do you make your own?
Running line?
How do you rig the fly and tippet?
etc., etc., etc.?
�
BTW I'm using a 9 wt rod (if that�makes a difference to the general discussion)
�
Any help would be greatly appreciated
