The day started out with a positive look, some swell coming in
through Money Trees getting up to about 8 foot faces max. And as the
tide was filling in through the early morning, a few sets started to
stand up at Inside Pad. A little morning lump going on but not too bad
and an almost empty in the lineup. Went on a third attempt at the
stand up paddle board and gave it a solid effort. Still can’t make the
connection why it’s full-on as far as surfing goes, but it’s definitely a
nice vantage standing up. Solid workout too. But the surfing doesn’t
feel that right.
So by the time the offshore came up sometime around 10, the swell
backed off and basically only broke up at Kongs. Maybe about head high
and that’s still fun enough. But i hung on land and waited to get the
report from the few that made it into the water. Everyone still seemed
good enough that got into it.
Bobby came into camp, bringing Sloth in with him on Buzy’s boat.
Straight onto the dingy and trolled for a couple hours and then back
onto Buzy’s boat to troll a few more. They hooked up 3 trevally’s, 1
blue fin that got cut up for sashimi and 2 silver trevally’s cooked up
on the grilled. Those blue fins are one of the better fish to eat raw.
He’s out tomorrow morning, but gonna have another early morning go with
Laplander Tom.
