Daily Surf Report - 4/21/2014

We will most certainly be closing early today. We will re-open tomorrow morning at 10AM.

Inspirational crystal quote of the day:

Good morning and welcome to the beginning of another wonderful week. The sun is up and there are some cumulus sticking onto the highest reaches of the ceiling this morning. The temperature is buzzing in at a chilly 55 degrees here in this little fishing village by the bay, as there is also an off-shore breeze blowing pretty hard in the key of Dizzy Gillespie, so wearing something to cover your ear holes out there today would be recommended (hood, squid-lid, or even a decent pair of ear plugs). There is still something left in the H2O since this past weekend but not as sizable, nor as clean. Today is going to be more of a judgement call on if it's worth going in or not.

CHANNEL:  Waist-to-almost-chest high but it's sloppier than a Capp Street Ho. Nothing is breaking clean as it's predominately close-outs and white water rides. The sand bars are closed and apparently serving no more drinks. Even the Barney Army was out earlier but, hey they'll try to surf anything! Maybe later? No one, and I mean NO ONE is there as I write this.

PATCH:  Still some bump in the rump left out here. WAAAAY outside of the Rock/Meeting Rock/Bulk Head there is a waist + left (sometimes right) but it sections like all get-out and when it hits the hole on the beach side of the Rock/Meeting Rock/Bulk Head it lays back and almost pulls a Houdini and disappears. The Snags are working a bit as well but the surf is a bit choppy and a little bit of a cross swell is in it as well which can render waves almost square at the tops making it quite frustrating to actually drop in to. So, look out for the rocks as the tide is checking out for part of the day as of now. Five (5) logs on it now. Catching some, missing most. Ugh!

PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT. 

Respect the Beach.
