Daily Surf Report - 6/23/2012
To Dogtown ROB! The big 50. Stop by the BBQ on the beach to wish him well.
Bolinas is in water conservation mode and neither the beach nor the shop has showers for rinsing. You can now purchase a re-usable 2.5 gallon water heater jug from the shop or bring your own. A great accessory for the traveling surfer.
Fading south swell and tide dropping LOW makes it important to get on it early before the sun rises. Still pulses of energy out there but lots of rocks and sand starting to expose. Incoming tide throughout the day and into the evening will improve conditions. Currently all sunny and calm with a temp of 53F. No wind and beautiful morning.
Channel: Spinning golden cylinders to pull in to with occasional waves to turn on. Dropping tide making it start to section out. A few small hollow waves in the thigh high range and better ones in the waist high size. Handplaners will get barrels and longboarders get pieces and parts to surf. Best between the boat ramp and the Groin sign. Improvement will come with more water later in the day and Mali-Bo has worked in the evening.
Patch: Lots of rocks exposed BUT this is still the call today as the South fades but still kicks out rollers past the meeting rock. Inside Snags has rights to ride as well but watch out for the bottom. Waves anywhere from knee to waist depending on the spot.
A few notables you may see in the water today include the following:
Just a reminder to pack your trash!!! PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. Respect the Beach.
