A self-proclaimed "Glide Bait Evangelist," Jimmy Fee of On The Water Media joins the guys this week to spread the gospel of the glide bait—in glide we trust.

Can the guys be swayed to the dark side? Are glide baits just a passing fad, or are they here to stay as a staple in the well-equipped surf bag?

The crew attempts to define the glide bait before diving into how to fish them, where they fit into a night's rotation, and why they might deserve a permanent place in the surf angler's arsenal. It's the beginning of what's sure to be an ongoing discussion about one of the hottest—and most debated—tools in the surf game.

On this week's episode of The Surfcast Podcast, Jerry and Toby break down one of the most overlooked aspects of surf plug action: roll. How much should a surf plug roll, and is more roll always better? The guys discuss how plug roll affects swimming action, why some plugs are designed to roll more than others, and whether roll is a desirable trait for every surf plug or only specific types of lures.

If you're into striped bass surfcasting, plug selection, and dialing in the action of your lures, this is a topic worth exploring. What do you think? Is roll a good thing, or can a plug have too much? Let us know your thoughts and experiences!

In this week's episode, the guys revisit the popular 4-Plug topic, this time tackling breachways and outflows.

The rules are simple: each angler can choose only four plugs, and specific lures must be identified where applicable by brand, size, and weight. Conditions and time of day cannot factor into the selections, color is not required, there is an infinite supply of lures (magically replaced if lost), and bait doesn't count.

So, what did the guys choose, and how would their selections differ from yours? Did they overlook a blatantly obvious choice? Give it a listen, then let us know what four plugs you'd take!

You make your own luck every time you enter the surf. However, in the end, we simply cannot calculate every factor that goes into catching fish- otherwise, we'd catch only 40- to 80-pound bass every time we went fishing. And that would kinda suck- do you really want to know everything that's going to happen, every time, in ever spot before you go? Luck and chance are part of what makes this fun.

So in this episode we answer a listener question getting at this exact question: how much of trophy hunting is purely just luck?

This week, the guys sit down with Calvin Toran-Sandlin to discuss one of the most extreme subcultures of surfcasting. While many anglers don a wetsuit in pursuit of striped bass, very few take it to the next level by strapping on fins and swimming—sometimes several hundred yards—out into the surf at night to fish isolated reefs and rockpiles. But that's exactly what Calvin does!

In addition to discussing the gear, conditions, and techniques that make this style of fishing possible, the guys explore how Calvin's extreme dedication gives him an advantage over his fellow surfcasters. Of course, there's also the giant elephant in the room: SHARKS! From great whites to brown sharks, Calvin shares some of his encounters with these apex predators and explains how he deals with them, both mentally and physically. Buckle up—this is an awesome episode!

On this week's episode, the guys tackle one of surf fishing's most debated topics: the fishing partner. Does having a partner improve your success, or can it actually hold you back? How do you choose the right person, and what expectations should both anglers have before hitting the beach? And perhaps the biggest question of all—is finding the right fishing partner even harder than dating?

Have you had a nightmare fishing partner experience, found the perfect surfcasting teammate, or do you simply prefer to fish alone? Let us know in the comments!

You asked, and we delivered. After plenty of listener requests, this week the guys devote an entire episode to one of surfcasting's most talked-about topics: spots.

Don't worry—we're not giving away anyone's honey holes. Instead, we dive into two specific aspects of spot selection. First, how do you know when it's time to move on from a dead spot? Second, we explore the idea of the "White Whale" spot—that location that looks absolutely perfect on paper, checks every box, and somehow still refuses to produce fish.

If you've ever struggled with knowing when to stay, when to go, or you've been haunted by a spot that should hold giants but never seems to, this episode is for you.

Oh, and yes—the episode title is an homage to It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia!
