Holes, gutters and troughs are what you want to find when fishing the sand, swells and waves stir up food and fish feel safer in that darker sandy water. Working on your presentation of your baits are great mainly to expose the barb for a good hook set, fish are intelligent but I think when it comes to food the smell instinct takes over everything. Working on your casting will help you a long way, although you don't always have to cast 100mtrs plus it's always good to know you are able to if needed.
