Surf casualities - creepy surf breaks

[Grooter]

Also not a surf break but....

Swam at Lake Buffalo once as a kid on a holiday with the folks

Creeped the absolute fcuk out of me, hair standing up on the back of the neck, feeling of dread etc..... never been back and doubt I ever will

Inland lake, no noahs. Was it the coldness and depth of the lake that was creepy
It's not necessarily an irrational fear: last week a snorkeller went missing, presumed drowned, in one of Fraser Island's freshwater lakes.

Yeah it was pretty cold

But it was also very still and very dark too.

I think with me I just don't like still water as I've never been fond of lakes or dams. Happy to fish in them but not to swim around in

Point Roadknight - Well out past the point when its over 5ft (cos your 2 kms out in the southern ocean from anglesea beach)

13th when dark n stormy and big

Only seen big sharks at Lorne. (but love the place)

I think back to the times I paddled out at Right Point, Phillip Is in the dark at about 5.15am with no one out, what was I thinking...

Big Left @ Flinders used to spook me but not anymore, more worried about dragging my fins on the rocks rather than sharks these days. I think the last time I freaked was at the East side of Cape Conran one time on my own, can't see the bottom due to lots of sand moving & pretty far from any help. A father drowned there trying to save his kid a week after I last surfed there.
