SoWal Surf Report

[Bobby J]

Get your boards ready as we have our first real swell in over a month on the way! Looking like it may have some size and will be alive for several days. The flat summer looks to becoming to an end! The trick to this one will be to find the best spot where the wind will not be killing it. Also keep your eyes on the tropics as it looks like we have some activity heading toward the East coast as well.

woot woot!

Surf very hard to predict right now. It looks as if seas will be smaller then expected. The call is now ranging between 3-5' and should begin to fade late Monday. This time of year it is always a hit and miss game. Keep your boards waxed and ready as we are finally seeing lots of activity in the waters! Looks like the East coast could be the call mid week.

I just got back and even though it wasn't kicking up a lot today there were still some people surfing and doing a bang up job. I was surprised at how much they got out of so little.

FUN TIME!!

got a couple good size sets of pretty lines this afternoon...looks like it's going to be churned up. We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Just left Blue Mnt. It was chest, doubling up but funn. It seems to be growing rapidly and tomorrow should be interesting. Lets see what the winds do.

Knee high slappers remaining. Looks like the East Coast is going to be the place to be this weekend!!!!!
