Maybe everyone should just go the the Children's Pool to launch this weekend. It should be nice and protected.

Just a thought.

Had it all to myself this morning

Bigger going out, coming in was not bad...............at least something got my heart thumping!

Stow it and GO!

Should have brought this I guess.

Monday was a rough day. The swells were so big I got sea sick after making bait. after allmost yaking or chumming off my yak we went in. Decided to make my day even better with a good old yardsale on my way in. not use to my outback in the surf at all!!!

That sounds scary.

No worries, guys', I'll pick up all your fish tomorrow.

C'mon already!

Be carefully folks, be patient. What goes up comes down. There are days in LJ launch where you walk through the surf.

Good to see you're back in town Chuck.

Nice pics Andy! Where is the one with the fish, missed that?

Congrats on the new sleigh Sharon! How are we going to find you without 'ol yellow?
There are many opinions on how to launch and land hobies but I have to say that in the big surf I have been peddling in with bungee attached to pedals and rudder down but unattached so that it can flip up when it hits the sand. speed seems to help greatly when the surf is breaking 100 yds out.

Good to be back in Sunny San Diego, the weather had been different than I remember... must be global warming!

I would give my left testicle for those conditions.I'm in Crescent City and most days out fish 6-9ft. swells at 6-10 seconds.And winds from 15-20 knots.Not always easy, but untapped.
