As far as sand, deflating your tires down to 10psi increases their surface area and helps dramatically, just be sure to have something to inflate them with when you're done. Best deal is at Costco, nice little piston drive pumps.

Like George said SH*T happens. A couple of new lessons learned. Every trip there, are new lessons learned, unfortunately some are expensive and other just just annoying. Tight Lines

I've got around $400 parked at the bottom of the Oside harbor! Second time in a yak, sculpin comes unhooked right between the mirage drive AND MY CROTCH all h-ll breaks loose and by the time I get things under control and start fishing again,,,,you can guess what. " hey where's my brand new pole and reel??" For two weekends I dragged the harbor with a salas 6x on 80 lb braid, never found it. I did dredge up two six volt batteries though, so I figured I helped clean the harbor and some lucky dude is going to score!! Ahhh, sometimes the hardest learned lessons are the best learned.
