Hey all-

I am chaperoning a canoe trip on Friday for my daughters 8th grade trip. I won’t be able to get to the cove until after dark. As such I am not going to be able to bring oysters for after the safety meeting.

See you all next weekend!

Good on you man, family first  :smt001  (will miss the oyster though  :smt012 )

Sorry Eric, not gonna make it this year.  Wife is in Italy and I've got the dog.  If I manage to snag a canceled RV site I'll bomb up there with the Sprinter and fish a couple hours during the tourney.

Regardless, I'd like to donate if you have a PayPal or Venmo.  Love this tourney and all the work you put into it.

Schills - I hope you can make it up - the raffle will be strong.

Rob - Thanks for the forecast.  I agree with Sonny.   :smt001

However the weather turns out, we're going to catch some really nice fish!

That site gives the temps for whitethorn. Up the hill and inland, not at the coast.

the shack will be back

Woot, Woot time to make a gallon of crema sauce, yum yum, thanks Jack...

I love your crema sauce and will eat as much as I can!

But the sad news is that Jack and his shack can't attend - his daughter is graduating from college that day.

I'll make fish tacos Sunday afternoon - please bring some crema!   :smt001

Good for Jack, bad for us... I will make a 1/2 gallon of crema sauce to bring Eric
Remember to practice safe knots, because big fish don't just break your line, they also break your heart.

The forecast is looking interesting to say the least!  I think prospects are good for plenty of fishable water from Thursday to Monday, but we'll have some rain and potential big swell and south wind part of the time...

Woohoo!!!

Anyone doing a gear swap/sale up there?

I’ve got a bunch of 2 and 3# lead weights I’d like to get rid of if anyone is interested.
Aloha,

Forecast can still change, but Wednesday and Thursday look the worst then the seas come back down.  That south wind and 3ft south swell will make for fun rides back.  At least the high tide is only 4.9ft at 12:19.  The launch will have plenty of beach space with a -1.2ft tide at 5:58.  Today and tomorrow look awesome😁

Weather is looking great...this is normal weather for a GS weekend!   :smt005

I remember the last rainy GS like 2 years ago??  Never seen the campgrounds so empty before.  Some people even left in the middle of the night on a Thursday.    :smt044 :smt044
