Saturday was my very first time out at LJ and although the bite was slow I did come away with a great experience, greater appreciation of the experience and the experts who have it figured out. Surf launched for the first time at 6:30, broke the tip off my G-Loomis trying to pull line hooked on kelp, drifted way out and spent 2 hours paddling in the pm only to roll it coming in before a packed house. Saved the pearl only to veer left and ended upside-down. Thankful I had almost everything tied down. Good grief I still had a blast and will write it off as "putting in the time." I had taken dedicated practice time to flip, climb in and out, but never practiced coming in on the surf. Figured my surfing background would suffice.......wrong. Learning much from this website and will continue on. Practice return in surf and securing is important.
Thank you all for sharing with us juniors.
