White or reflective is important if there is going to be much sun.   Dark colored gets eaten up pretty quick and is hotter.

 I love my Penn 85 for bottom fishing. Check out http://store.scottsbt.com/Penn-Parts-Home-Page-W7C1.aspx . Good place for parts.

   Could the jetty or entrance be  modified using computer modeled sand flow programs so that the sand would bypass the entrance and land in front of O'neills?

  Probably not what you would want to be wearing for swimming in an African watering hole.

    That's an adolescent GWS .

   What if a coastal strain of GWS  is  making a comeback after near extinction .Gill netting having been banned etc. The Monterey Bay before Europeans, for instance,  was boiling over with fish and the coastline was probably covered in seals . Why would  a shark  want to be anywhere else?

    That could mean that every year we are going to get a new batch of curious shark kids out to taste and learn everything. Getting sighted-in as it were.

  Gotta get thru those first three weeks  and then it lets up, or at least that was about my time.

 It's a big deal, nicotine is very addictive.

  Watch out for the little 8" or so reflection wave off the sometimes submerged sometimes above water rock wall  to the far right of the beach. Very speedy.It runs perpendicular to the beach.  I think how it works is if you have only a foot of draft beneath you then the kayak doesn't ride over the wave but takes the whole several hundred pounds flat on. Almost got me a couple times. Maybe it's just because it's so fast.
