How often do you have a 'yard sale'? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I've never been DOUSHED paddling in, but had one day in Mex that went Gilligans Island on me .The ocean was like a pond going out but 10 hours later coming back in it was close-out sets with 15 ft faces and the only safe landing was 7 miles away at La Salina .So I made sure EVERYTHING was stowed and the paddle leash secured .I paddled into the surf break waves ,caught a wave and half way down the face I bailed out and let my kayak get washed on shore and I swam in .No gear lost or broken ,but my ego was taken down a notch .
