VERY small this arvo - basically inconsistent stuff below 1ft. Still good to get wet after being out for a few weeks. Struggled on my 5'6 fish as my arms got tired. Think it's time to invest in a mal or an SUP
Small wave on the beaches this morning for those that did the early. The water is very warm but it was pretty sharky.
Heard it was a 4 metrey but i really don't want to start another shark discussion/debate/arguement. I don't have the energy...
^^^^ the radio said a 4m White was spotted at Scarb yesterday evening at 7pm and Rotto beaches were closed today because of a Bronzy spotted 500m offshore.
Been down trigg the last two nights right up to 6.30pm with the squids in the water surfing and swimming, seen a couple of big stingrays but no sharks...phew. Best thing was 11 year old daughter paddling my old 6'10" and catching a few and now wants a new "real" surfboard for B'day instead of an I-pod...I reckon thats money well spent
That pod of Dolphines was hammering mettems pool wednesday morning, cool to see.
This morning... tide perfect,wind perfect but swell needed another 2-3ft, a few fun ones that hollowed out enough to get in!
suprisingly good and wierdly quiet down the coast this morning, although i didn't go to goldilocks. schoolies these days have no stamina.haha
Better than where we went Bakesy, much better. Had the missus's 15yr high school reunion last night, got home at about 1 up at 3:50 picked up a couple of lads on the way north. Drove up the beach, absolute pus, turned around, home by 9:30 and 400km later.
Hope someone buys my house today I'm lookin forward to having that as a local.
Think I came close to breaking my person record of water time ;)
In the water just after 6am...out at 1:40pm with a 10 minute break for water
Don't know why...waves at secrets weren't even that great. Just couldn't leave though.
...wind burn's a bitch.
yeah it is shallow in places, the takeoff area can be sketchy on small days. It is a bit of a fin graveyard but haven't lost any this year!!
I love bakesy's secret spot. i reckon there should be a thread with updates each time he goes. Not being sarcastic, I reckon it's great.
Just spotted a few waves that looked like a bit of fun at super secret mystery spot. Few guys out, some rippers.
Yep.
Waves were very average just couldn't leave though...don't ask why
Woke up sore on Monday ;)
Anyhoo...just been up to Trigg and a bit further. Flat as a lake. Water was lovely though, plenty of whiting around...if only you were allowed to use a gidgee
yea i ended up going for a swim and bodysurf this morning since it was so flat.. water is such a great temp at the moment!
Suba, how did you manage to get this post in then?

I've taken a mini mal on a jetstar flight a couple years ago and had no issues.
But won't ever do that again...carrying 4 boards in the airport without a coffin....blaaargh! "
