NOT SO big south swell forecast for this weekend.

4 foot swell from 212 degrees forecast through the weekend. means 10 foot faces on big sets.

(edit- they lowered the foreast to more south and smaller).

these things don't always show up, they get filtered by islands, knocked down by NW wind, etc.

but this one has enough size that something should get through.

have fun out there!

Dang.

Maybe I'll go check out that sale in Livermore instead.

UUUGGGHHHH.......will that mean HEAVY stuff down at Andrew Molera/ Big Sur?..I think it faces more to the south.

might have to grab the bodyboard and head down towards Pomponio to get some good waves.
I went out at Rockaway last sunday,it was small, ut it was the first surf for me since this madness took over me. IT FELT GOOD TOO, and I'm still sore!  are you surfin instead of fishin J?

Good, I want to surf this weekend.

I vote Jmairey to be our official Surf Forecaster 

Bill, perhaps we can add a new topic on the forum "Weather dude" for up to date weekend forecasts

NOAA is still calling for 2 foot from the South. I'll remain cheerfully optimistic, but am ready to stow all gear at launch and landing.

Oh, and the winds don't look all that promising either

Will the launch area near coral street or carmel bay be blown out also?

Dang!
And I just sent a mass PM inviting people to hit molera on Sunday. But after looking at some surf sites and talking with my buddy Paul, it might not be the best wknd to hit Molera. The south swell turns that point into an excellent surf spot.

Brian, Coral St will be fine. Parts of Carmel will be OK too. But I would stay away from Asilomar LOL!

Last saturday the surfing was epic at Pillar Point. Greasy calm with 4 to 8 foot faces. Any body who wants to kayak surf with us is welcome. There was two guys with sit inside sea kayaks last week. I have a spare plastic play boat. All you need is a helmut, skirt, pfd, and a paddle. Usually it's user freindly, surf inside for the small ones or go out and get the big ones. I think it would be fun with some of your fishing boats. Bring a wetsuit and even a rod. Tim

Looks like I picked a good weekend to go play paintball up by Yosemite...

I really dig that emoticon  Bill, can we add that to ours?

Guys, I'm sure fish will be caught in the ocean this weekend, I'm just forwarding the info to help you plan.

I am clearing my calendar and planning to surf (on a surfboard, kayaks are for fishing)  sat, sun, mon, tues mornings or as many days as my old body will let me.

I think Bean should be pretty protected by the point and Ano Nuevo, what do you think John?

I agree with you Bill,
I'm thinkin BEAN sat.morn, hook my CABZILLA I've been huntin for(and a few ling and/or But's.... paddle in for hot dogs on the beach....then  a drive by pomponio to catch some surf (if it's up) in the afternoon. 
this would be a first for me! catch ocean-fish and waves on the same day.
Life is tough! here in NOR-CAL!
