Weekend waves!

The tail end of a big south swell ended up providing some fun waves for us nearby...

After getting up early and drinking a stupid amount of tea (which resulted in Jake bouncing off the walls, and both of us pissing at every possible stop) we got on the road.

There was a bit of a decision to make, with the wind sitting somewhere between a N and a NW... we needed to make a call...

First check at a certain river mouth revealed this:


So we could only imagine what little gems lay waiting further round the bay!

HOWEVER... further round, the wind was all wrong!! F%&ken NW wind!

These wee gems were a bit further round...





All a bit rocky and/or shallow :-(

On the mish to another secret spot we go... which was working :-)





Surfed our brains out for a solid 3 hours... only coming in when the hands went numb and the shoulders were screaming!!



On the low tide it was breaking nicely... but was super close to the rocks.



Logging potential?
