Did the drive north
it was terrible way to big hitting the outer reefs and than waist height double ups on the beachies........
so close but so far
the wind also didn't help
didnt go out
went to the bakery
drove home
Swapped a dusty board for a 6'1 x 19 3/4 x 2 5/8 round tail, domed deck, medium rail, futures boxed, white bottomed, woody topped Katana with Blackstix V2's yesterday and surfed a lumpy bumpy overhead chunky left today. Really happy with the board...then came home & the missus surprised me with toasty sandwiches when I got out of the shower. Life is good

I drove a little further to a left reef break at a spot I reckon you may know well and scored fun waves with a few crusty locals.
The young frothers invaded this arvo and showed no regard for the old fella trying to get a few quiet waves after a hard day at the salt mines. I didn't have an ounce of hassle in me. Or revenge.
Damned Huey heard you Raz.....bloody wind is swinging more south
plus bloody Lano way is going to be infested with WaterBogans at the JetSki fest being run at BB
So without much hope today I awoke at 630 (45 minute sleep in compared to week days) went down to trigg scabs stretch and took the Maldives out with me mate.....
didnt expect much, pretty straight than a rip formed and snared a good half a dozen barrels in and out lefts and rights for 40 minutes,,,humans gathered and everyone paddled over the rip dissapeared I got one more tub, came out and rode it to the beach...
probably the funnest surf I've had locally for a couple months,,,, 40 minute window
Nth Wedge was ok ...looked **** early but not as **** as the beach access south looked!!!
wind actually went NE and waves got better as morning went on ...swell dropped fairly quickly
now for beer n footy at the Endeavour
I hope the drive was worth it. As Razz says, the local stretch, while not big nor all-time, was pretty damned clean and fun for the morning.
Just to keep the thread alive.
Have had a couple of micro surfs. By myself. Dominated.
I saw my surfboard the other day, when i was looking for something in the study..
That's all i got.
Fellas their is a lot of big sharks on the metro coast at current not sparking debate
Just the helicopter service justifying its existence.

Well, I found the pots, rebaited and picked up plenty of crays, had 2 surfs with minimal crowd. Pretty happy with the way that weekend went...

That's the way all weekends should be!!! stoked...
So I slept in till 730 and when I looked at the camera it was sort of glassy but the ocean was covered in ants hundreds of them.........
My three questions
1) was there a comp on?
2) are we back to kook season
3) it wasn't that good metro ,,, why the panic?
maybe I'm out of line here but please tell me otherwise
I was one of those ants. It wasn't to bad this morning. It was good Yesturday arvo. Easy double the size usual crew.
I like the idea of be respectful to the locals??
