|
|
With the weathermen predicting light winds, temps about 80 and fog burning off in the AM Mary decided that she wanted to go to PINS for some shelling and fishing. Drove as far as the 20 and with the fog really thick and seeing several areas where vehicles had gotten stuck we decided to head back north. Driving was fair at the best. One of the worst areas was about 6mm where one of the oil rig trucks was stuck. Those trucks really tear up the beach. But that's another post.
Here is what the conditions looked like at 10:30 AM.
This was what it was like about 1:30PM.
Mary, with one of about 8 whiting and a pomp caught, about 2:30.
All we had was about 1 1/2 hours of sun all day. On the way back we drove SBH and the water was a lot cleaner. Was going to stop to fish it but was tired and winds were picking up so came home instead. |

saw y'all on the way down.
the driving down south was strange. getting stuck wasn't really an issue and it wasn't all that bumpy, but you would sink about 2 inches wherever you went. like driving over a giant tempurpedic mattress.
it was hell on fuel. i filled up at whitecap and hit the half tank mark just before the 40 and had to turn back. made it back to whitecap with about 1/16th of a tank. normally I can run the whole beach on 3/4 a tank easy.
point being, if anyone is planning on going down in the next couple days, bring some gas! _________________

Hey, rawlbay, you should have stopped and said hi. I was talking about you to my wife today. Had her give me a lesson on how to take self pics. Told her that I wouldn't have had a pic of me with the cobia if it wasn't for you. |

Sorry Zia. Normally I would have stopped by, but I saw that you had your lady friend with you this time, and I figured you were trying to get your swerve on. Did not want to intrude. _________________
