I dont know if this is the same or not but if its relevant Ill tell whom ever.
I was at the restaraunt at Bob hall. Was watching this guy with a pole, looked like one of the cheap zebcos trying to walk out through the waves, he was about chest deep and having a rough go at about the 3rd set of breakers.. Looked like his girl friend was behind him and water was at her chin and having to jump to keep her head above the waves. I looked over at my wife and told her that guy is going to drown trying to go that far out. Looked at the pier and looked back and he was gone. No where in sight. I said something to the waitress about it but she made it sound like no big deal. That was somewhere around 330-430.
Ill call the phone number. _________________ Whatever your hands find to do, do it with all your might. (Fishing is one of those things ) |

| My wife and I were fishing at the 36mm and moved to the 44 before dark. Around 1 am we were hanging by a fire and a park ranger showed up asking if we had seen a woman that may have been naked passing by, she was later found with a shark bite out of her leg around the 30s by a good friend of mine headed off the beach Sunday morning. Very sad to hear |
