After the Storm
Soaked 1 bait in 2 days, and fished for treasure the other 11 hours. Turns out the first and last couple minutes of each day provided the only entertainment. Although I did snag the weirdest looking creature I have seen recently (no pics though). Got to play in some moderate surf with short intervals on Sun.

wow.. that's a perfect text book lean-in the surf. thanks for sharing.
Just curious, How do you position your paddle when do lean and dig your paddle in. Is it perpendicular to surface to slow down the boat so you don't surf in front of the wave then flip?

I call that the Slap Chop, at least that is what it feel like to the nether regions.

It is parallel to the surface, and used as if you were placing it on a dock to lean over and look in the water. The wave is naturally going to tend to tip your sideways kayak towards the low side. And as it is breaking, it is going to tend to roll it over. The purpose of the lean is to counteract that by forcing the kayak to slide down the face sideways. Thanks for making me think about that, cause it brings up some other questions I will have to look into. Like: Does a lighter person and gear need to lean less cause they are easier to move sideways? Hmmmmm

Just make sure you guys all realize that your kayak needs to have water going completely under it when side washing or you will catch an edge and eat it harder than coming straight in. Think of it like a snowboard. When I had my outback it was a little easier to slide in sideways but you really need to commit to leaning into the wave.


Nice video Greg! The master at work!!
