Glad that's all you lost, I went up to Ventura just to watch, 10-15 foot
at the pier, watched a couple surfers come in with only half a board and a bunch of lifegaurds and ambulances pretty knarly...

Irvine looks so calm, tranquil, peaceful...

DP on the other hand was the nastiest I've seen it. Took my PA out into 10+ foot swells, 20-30 knot wind and 2+ foot wind waves. Got out to the pipe, made a practice drift, looked at the ocean, decided to go back in. Pa handled it well though.

Even the harbor had whitecaps and the swells were breaking over the jetty.

The olive outback looks familiar, I'm sure I saw you out there yesterday! I should have snapped some pics of you guys. I saw at least 2 PA's, 3 Outbacks and a handful of traditional paddlers on the water yesterday. Not sure how many other BWE members were out there yesterday?

I ended up chatting with Alfonso, a new Pro Angler owner. He said he rolled up on you guys thinking you were me. LOL We'll have to get setup a BWE event at the Vine one day.

Yeah, I remember Al, i believe he was the one with the bright orange jacket, we talked and peddled alongside each other for a few minutes. What kayak were you in? Did you end up catching any fish? We gave all of our fish away to some of the less fortunate.

I was in the Ivory Outback, Mango colored PFD, Green bucket hat with the Hobie Livewell er cooler in the back. I spent a good amount of time trolling for no love, but eventually found them in 30-40'. They wanted Powerbait so I picked off 2 to save my day. Gave my 2 fish to a family of 6 who got nothing. Hopefully I made a deposit in the bank of karma.

Yup, that's the same Al out on his second PA trip.
