Gonna be tough paddling out the back in these current conditions. Head of the fetch is just offshore so its a sizey relentless swell (ie no lulls between sets) and given the low low tide expected this afteernoon, that won't be helping the situation either.

I know a couple of spots, either side of a big headland where there'll be waves and easy go outs.
Be checking it about lunchtime.

Didn't you get washed back down the point last time (a few weeks ago with Ledge) in a very similar locally generated swell event? And yeah I heard KGB is crowded with Brisso blow ins.

If it's any consellation Trev, I'm stuck at work today!!! :evil:

It's much, much cleaner today than it was that time. I didn't actually get washed down the point but would have if i'd tried to follow Mick out the keyhole. I actually walked back and rocked off the ledge just inside the groyne.
Just about to head off with my board.
Watch this space. :wink:
