I was out there today. Lots of swell and a moderate wind. Not the most comfortable fishing conditions. Water was cold and off color with lots of broken kelp. Surf has been up lately and has stirred things up a bit. Caught some assorted rockfish. Got wet on the way out and in. Lots of rental yakers getting hammered on the way in and out. Saw several major wipeouts. I am surprised that the rental companies take novices out in the conditions like that. $$$$$$!!!!! Some tourist is going to get hurt or killed someday when it is like that. Watch out!

Thanks. I think I'll hit dana instead. I wanted to launch around 3:30 am, but its so cold, factor in the wind, and my first launch in my new waders in decent surf, yeah sleep in and launch at baby beach this time. If the water was just a few degrees warmer I'ed do it. Again thanks for the heads up.

The swell has been at 8 ft all day, and is still at 6 ft now.

There also is wind. Its far from ideal conditions right now.
