| Sun Feb 14th Valentines day and the surfing drought for me continues. I need a nice clean 2 ft day to
get back out and work the shoulder. This has lasted a lot longer than I expected, add in the cool weather and I've
probably gotten too big for my wetsuit. I need a nice weekend day. |
Sat Jan 30th Cams look kinda crappy for the weather, if it was warm and sunny, I'd be gone. Thunderstorms
come in around low tide bringing the off-shores. Not looking appealing until maybe late afternoon, but
I suspect the tide will kill the 2ft swell.
I'll be watching to see if it cleans up some, could be a good day to try and get back out
again, it's been way too long, put on some weight, hopefully I can squeeze into my wetsuit if things clean up around noon
like they're suppose to. |
| Sat Jan 23rd When out fishing, just off shore, could see some nice occasional sets coming in, there
were more folks out surfing than I expected for the smaller colder waves. Nice day out, the fish weren't biting
worth a darn. Good to get out in the sun though. |
| Sat Jan 16th Very long spell with no surfing, I think I need a nice 2-3ft clean day where it's a little warmer
just to get warmed back up again. First time in years I haven't surfed in the winter. |
| Sun Dec 13th Looks choppy on the cams currently expect it to clean up around noon when the winds shift SSW, looks
to be decent size. I can't wait for my vacation break and get off all this overtime so I can try to get back surfing
again. Going on three months now. |
| Sat Nov 21st One day I'll get back in the water, between the rotator cuff, work and being sick, it just
hasn't been a good fall for surfing for me. |
| Friday Oct 30th Between work and the rotator cuff injury, it's been the longest dry spell for surfing
for me since I started. Hopefully I can get some surfing done on Sunday, arm is still sore, but it's probably getting
time to give it a test drive. |
| Saturday Oct 10th The one mile bouy showing 2.3 ft, that's definitely surfable, low tide has has already
passed, might still be surfable, doesn't match what I was seeing in the predictions though. Looks like it could be
a fun day at the beach, or watching football. Still thinking tomorrow dawn patrol is best. |
| Saturday Oct 3rd The flat spell continues, it's possible if you're desperate around low tide and
have a big enough log, you might catch some gliders, but that's probably doubtful. But it's nice out. |
| Sunday Sep 27th We caught few Black Sea Bass that were above the limit, threw a whole bunch back
because they were too small, caught half a one, I assume a shark bit into on the way up, caught three sharks, released
them all. Caught one Lane Snapper, released it, only to later learn the limit was 8" not 12" :(.
Rotator cuff still bugging me, heading out fishing, hate getting up so early in the
morning though on the weekends, the only time I get to sleep in. Hopefully we'll catch a few big ones. |
| Saturday Sep 19th Still out with the rotator cuff injury, bummer, because I could use some surfing
time for stress relief. Looks pretty choppy on the cams, not missing much. |
| Saturday Sep 12th Nice weekend for surfing and I'm out the rotator cuff is still in bad shape. Continuing
to stretch it, but I think it'd probably be bad to push it surfing today |
| Sunday Sep 6th Looks like I'm out today, my rotator cuff is in some serious pain. Not sure I could
even paddle out today. Kinda of a bummer, because it looks to be a lot like we had yesterday. Fun knee high with occasional
waist high waves. Take some vinegar with you, the jelly fish were out yesterday, but not that bad, it's the brown ones,
but you will probably get stung some. |
| Saturday Sep 5th Went out close to 1:00, it was fun, smaller and cleaner than yesterday. Breaking pretty
well on the outside, 1-3 feet, smooth rollers, fun longboarding waves, big enough the shortboarders could play. Still fun
when I got out near low tide. Not too crowded, I ended up going to #4, three people showed up about an hour after I was
out there. There were some of the brown jelly fish out there, I was sting a few times, but their stings are not as bad
as a yellow fly bite |
