Saw that it hit almost 12ft at the pier last night.:eek:

Hope it settles down by tomorrow morning. I hate starting the day with a wave to the face.

I punched thru that junk this morning around 10am. Took quite a few to the chest thanks to the "speediness" (lol ) of the FnD. I never realized how much water can cover the kayak and how slow it is when it's draining thru the scupper holes. Seeing a huge wave coming right for me and I'm literally inching along:eek: . Anyway, bait was tough but I managed to run into a school of dines and made a couple (first for me). Didn't need them anyway. Probably a 9'-11' (estimate) swell from trough to peak on the outside. Not fun but luckily I don't get sea sick.... Won't be able to make it out this weekend.. Bummer...

nm,

how was the vis.? I'm actually considering going diving. But if the trough to peak was as big as 11', then I think I'll just stay home.
