Ahhhh, bummer! I recently donated 5 poles to the Pacific

Hopefully someone will stumble across it for you!

Sorry to hear Chris. I did the same a few weeks ago- I just hadn't admitted it yet

I'm not sure why, but I only leash things down 3 out of 5 times or so.. should probably be everytime. I landed in the dark the other night, and caught a wave in.. Put my feet out for extra drag which helped prevent the dreaded turn sideways, but you never know when things might surprise you out there.

Hope someone finds your rod.

Damn Chris.. That sucks. They surf was pretty dicey yesterday evening. Short interval surf, accompanied by a couple of thumpers. I made it out/in pretty unscathed, but I found myself too far inside for a set. It definitely kept me on my toes. I hope they find their way back to you.

Sorry to hear about that! It was pretty dicey for me as well yesterday, I got pretty wet landing, but luckily avoided the flip. Hopefully theres a chance it will wash up on shore and someone will turn it into the lifeguard station. You should definitely check there the next time you're at La Jolla.
(BTW I was the kid packing my tan Revo in the white F-150 next to you)
