Launch was super hairy, got slammed 5 or 6 times in the face by incoming waves, but held my course and finally got through. Water was a bit choppy but when I got a mile offshore (25 feet deep)the wind kicked into high gear so I called it off, came back for a killer sideways landing, getting good at that. Spent 2 hrs fishing the inlet for a spunky little shark. No skunk for me, no salmon either.
Maybe try Sunday.

Group IQ is inversely proportional to the size of the group.

Way to stick with it and make something work Ben. Sounds like a Knarly land/launch. Good training!

The shark was caught, non-yak, at the inlet with beer in hand. After a futile attempt at dux. Muir is promising for me 'cause its an easy 1/2 hour drive instead of over the hill at one hour.
