Not much to see this morning, ran into Stuck up, he was just driving around looking...... minus low tide at 7a, high tide at 1:40p.... so, I may go take a drive around 1/2 tide and see if there is anything to be found..... Friday is supposed to pick up to NW 7ft, with Sat and Sun NW6ft, but the N winds will continue to pick up later in the day.... should burn some of this overcast off today, but late tonight supposed to get some drizzle..... keeps things green.....

Rest of the week picking up a little bit, NW 4-5ft with N winds all week.... looks like the afternoon winds will be with us for awhile......

Got out early...... waist to knee high mushers.... but, a good group to be in the water with.... water still cold.... gloves are a good idea..... NW 4-5ft @ 6-9sec's with the ever present N winds later in the afternoon..... low tide around 2:30p.... It won't be a good idea to try to overnight at Indian Beach...... since Shorty's is closed to overnight, they will be enforcing the no overnight camping.....
