Little bit of love early here - glassy n clean ..... had to wait a little bit but still some size on tap ... got out 5 or 10 minutes before good old mister greysuit rocked up ... timing is everything 
Yeah I got down there just after it was sighted. Waited 30 minutes for everyone & the shark to fark off & had it to myself for a couple of hours. Absolute magic day eh 
leapt out of the water at one point hard to say what it was or how big from the distance tho might have been a Bull or a Whaler ???? - magic at first light water was beautiful & waves were way better than I expected by forecasters
Yeah same mate, I was expecting less than yesterday. But it was way better...that seal popped up a few times surveying the scene. Was funny coz some pommy blowin chick had just paddled out with the knowledge there was a shark sighted recently. She had my attitude towards the shark ie its the ones you don't see that you gotta worry about & it should have farked off by now. But the seal was a deal breaker for her. Its beady brown eyes had her spooked & she paddled straight in lol...personally I was happy for an extra body in the water that didn't surf & looked way more like a seal than my mexican blanket log
Went back down with the missus to drain a bottle of bubbly & there were still only a few people out. Fingers crossed the ground swell continues tomorrow

Little did I know I had left my wetsuit in the carpark hanging on a log to dry. I went to a different place this morning, got out of the car to suit up and had my face palm moment. High tailed it 45 mins north back to yesterday's joint. No wettie. Not happy. And to make matters worse it looked like this:
Pics not working for me...
Spew'in mate, can't believe someone picked up your wettie, most would leave it there...I'm pretty paranoid doing that kinda **** these days. I take off my wettie/boots & wack 'em straight into a bucket in the back of the car. But as I leave I still get paranoid & switch my reversing camera on to make sure I didn't drop something. Hpefully it turns out to be a mate who knew it was yours & grabbed it for ya.

So yesterday when I sat in the carpark and couldn't be motivated it looked like this:

That looks tricky getting in and out although you cant really see the full picture. Swells on its way up here but it's howling south west and not barge friendly.
More love this morning - bit longer wait than yesterday and smaller but clean as & sun was out - no-one else around either SWEET
Yep another day in paradise, ended up being just me & Mal Pup. Was pretty consistent for about an hour, but then it just stopped. Probably not much left over for tomorrow. But I might take the 666 down if its another day like today, wind/sun wise
SMH, getting out is dead easy even when it is huge. The first pic, where the blokes are is the channel and a shelf. You walk out in ankle to waist deep water depending on the tide and swell and jump off. Where they are coming in they are paddling against the hole little bay drain North.
Getting in in can be trickier if it is big. The only way to come in really is to catch a wave and straighten out near the end, or paddling in through the peak. The channel, with any size,mis hard to paddle against. Those blokes were a bunch of Brazilians and one of them paddles about ten metres from shore for 7 or 8 minutes. His mate was yelling at him from the beach to go back out but he didn't want to. A mate got sucked around and spat back out three times on a 12 foot day a few years back after snapping a leggie and losing his board. Too much water draining too fast.

whats the track like drip?
They have graded it. The rock garden has been limestoned over. Thank f*** for that. Lol. The corrugations are coming back pretty quickly though. The other end hasn't been touched and continue to deteriorate.

I'm still wearing mine (minus the tail), it's so warm and comfy.
^^^
They are super comfy...
And you did a better tailoring job than I did, judging by the offcut. I left a bit of a downward curve to keep water out of the tradie's crack while duckdiving. 
^^^^ Thats great lucky man ,I wish mine did taken from front deck at home-lowlifes

Great news!
Few fun little ones on the 666 today, was better than it looked...damn seal was annoying though, catching fish & flinging them around playing with them. Basically decided to take the 666 out coz of that, so I didn't have my arms & legs in the water. Felt a bit dodgy with no one else around...but yeah, few fun ones
I had a heap of waves, but got talked out of the longboard by my mate. He has recently purchased an ex-comp HP Nathan Rose longboard so it won't be long before he is converted.
3-4 and a bit lumpy and uncrowded. A few pros showed us all how we should be surfing.
