Don't worry about getting seasick. It takes only a couple of times out to get used to it. You'll probably be fine without dramamine by your next trip.

Nice meeting you at the launch, and glad if I helped with it. If I'm not mistaken, your name was Jake? Correct me if I'm wrong, I often am with names.
Sounds like your launch was like mine. The waves were bigger than normal, and I took white water over the bow, too. I'm glad you didn't roll. Landings can be particularly hairy at times. Sorry about the rod breaking.
I went solo without my Julie. Sounds like you did better than me. I covered probably 10 miles total, and except for mackeral (saved for lobster season), I only caught 3 small sand-dabs I released. I'm jones'ing for a yellow.
Now, that you got the feel, I'm sure you'll be back.

Yup my name is Jake. If it wasn't for all of the advice I got on the beach I probably would have rolled in the surf.

Another guy told me about aguide he hired named Josh Pruitt who I believe posts on here as well.

His name has been banned from mortals' minds by the fishing gods for how much carnage he has laid forth on the fish of SD.
