I warned you guys that it can be a tuff launch especially at low tide. Gary had the same issues with his Hobie there, that's why he got rid of it. Nice drives but not the best surf performance. Gary hacked up his Altura and has now mounted a Hobie drive in it just for fishing there.

So I can't believe that you got away with posting a BU report without repercussions. If I put one up I'd have the usual suspects crawling up my ass, and crying bloody murder LOL

Some of the locals really don't want anyone talking about the fishing up there. The old locals only mentality.

Keep at it!!! Lick your wounds and get back out there. It's going to be rough all week but the weekend should be great conditions, and there are definitely some quality fish around.
