Freak Waves?
A friend and I were out fishing yesterday 7-6-10. At roughly 10 to 11 am, we both saw a freak set of waves, similiar in size to what a large boat would make, but different....There were no large boats in the area, and none had recently left...If viewed from above, the overall shape would have been crescent shaped approx 200- 300 yards accross, as if a boat took off in a curve, but the wave travelled as a cresent (it did not close in towards itself). The wave also moved in slow motion like white water rivers, or rip current waves...
We were approx 90 ft deep in site of the kelp, drifting towards the canyon... My thoughts are some strange current or upwelling, maybe a small quake in the canyon? I did some research and found this.... http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2...current191246/ Just curious of any similiar stories from LJ cowboybill |
