Island in the morning, back reef. Was shifty and a bit chunk.
Lakey in the afternoon on a left that's been formed from the lake mouth bursting open and scouring a bank for a week. Finally a good bank! Skank water though.

The sweep at snapper looked like hell this afternoon on the cams while this morning it seemed non existent.
In a swell like this from the east it’s fairly tide dependent, BD. Was that photo you posted Sunsets?

Then drove south and surfed a reef in Kiama. Bit wonky but plenty of size and chunk. And just surfed Cronulla the alley on the way home. It’s dropped off to four foot now. Storm brewing from the south

Well it’s still solid. Thought it looked about 4 foot, casual paddle out till a set of 6 foot plus cleaned up and washed me way down the beach.
Yeah, it seemed largely a well timed paddle off the rocks followed by hopefully a big one that didn't close out. Then in to the beach for the end of the session or another curcuit. A few stuck it out for a session of three or four.

So just like normal then :-D-:
Had a grovel at Bondi. Caught a couple. Heaps of logs and branches on the beach and the odd branch floating around in the line up.

Nothing so exotic thudster. Just the spot we call Lakey down the coast because it’s in front of the lake mouth.
Waves were like Indo though. Haven’t seen it like that for maybe 10 years.

I spent a month at Lakey Peak around 1983, there was just one losmen, no village, nothing else, about 5 in the water.

Went back about 10 years ago, there was way over 100 surfers staying there.

Looks like it is getting better and bigger, amazing looking lines coming through down here. I'm on child duty and am trying not to be distracted and grumpy

Off shore this arvo. Looked better than it was. Strong rip dragging you past the shallow bank that was either not breaking or closing out. A rare one in between if you were lucky that lined up nicely. Classic annoying Bondi in other words. Also as often happens you could paddle wide of the rip and make serious headway compared to everyone else. Pretty funny to casually blitz the whole pack by paddling out to sea.
