no reason why it won't. Shiny + metal = salmon at gunnas if they are there. only issue you might have is throwing anything less than 30g and you'll get taken for a ride by the side current or swells. most of the guys spin with 40-70g lures at that beach

So i have a shimano catana 902 which is a 3 odd meter 6-8kg surf rod with a cheap shimano 4000 reel and 20lb line. Right now, i only have a 20g lure so whats the maximum weight lure do you think my gear can handle

50-ish grams. Just about spot on.

hopefully that onshore wind stays nice and light, otherwise Sunday's NNEer should be good (assuming the forecast stays as it is now (it'll change as soon as I make a plan))
Think the swell is gonna kill it this weekend Goony, hope not, but forecast shows it building.
