    The boards are staying dry Sunday- I'll wait for some real juice later this fall and winter.
    Finally someone else that shares my sentiments. This morning was fun....not huge! Head high sets. If I hear some moron tell me that he saw double overhead sets again...I am gonna snap! It didn't happen. The deepwater buoy was reading swells in the DOH range, but that never made it to the beach. I would say it was 6 feet tops. Glad I got on it early...wind did exactly what I thought....SOUTH! Don't tell me how epic NIRI was tonight..bc I would rather surf wind chop in OC with some umpf than soft northside.

After lunch went down to mid OC and saw alittle better conditions but not much diff. Do you have any pics of the surf at your secret spot in DE? I'd loove to see the pics and sure everyone else would too, if not, its cool
    Maybe if you learned to read I said last night. Go to delsurf there's tons of pictures up.

    Sunday over hyped, but still good surf in the morning

    MUCH smaller than yesterday. Started out about consistent head high. Occasional over head + sets. GLASSY in the morning, turning to mush later in the day. Small now.

    Andy Irons was back at Manasquan Inlet today... Heard Kelly Slater was there, but never saw the face.

    Someone said he(KS) was down south in Hatteras yesterday. I wonder if that is who was doing the tow in stuff that Carson was talking about.

    He said sat night and the other guy said sat morning. I thought the swell was going to get bigger during the day, so it would make sense that there is a disagreement.

    Skeglegs : Sorry dude, yea your right, I musta read over saturday NIGHT, my bad. And Chris Joyner, thanks for the support but he was right and yes, it does make sense that it was smaller on Saturday MORNING as I witnessed, as compared to Saturday EVENING, to which Skeglegs was referring to. Gonna check the pics out now, hope everyone got some good ones
