    true, yesterday's swell was not bill.

    Don't worry it is coming. The first signs of long period energy are just starting to show on the buoys.

    I agree with that. Had several guys telling me that Bill swell was already here and I just couldnt see it with yesterday's swell coming straight out the east. I got about 6 guys out and about now while I hold it down at the office. On stand by to jet if i get any better reports. according to this sight should increase in size......damn im ready so bring it

    Offshore buoys at florida and hatteras are seeing hints of it, not even showing on the beaches yet there though really. Ofcourse it takes longer for us being further in. Be patient, by this afternoon we will see it.

    I hear ya mate, check out the period of some of those wave readings on the buoys down in florida. Pretty incredible, that is a lotta of ground to cover to be that far apart, can't remember last time I saw it like that. Hope this wind holds out for us!

    I thought this friday morning was real good, I was at Spartanburg Ave, CB near ocean grille and tiki bar and I got some shoulder high barrels, but some waves were close outs. I just wouldnt say yesterday was ten times better, thats major exaduration for were I went. I may have spelled exaduration wrong Im only 12.

    I surfed down in Surfside Beach this evening.. no one was out in it. I only caught a few, it was too choppy. I hear tomorrow is supposed to be way better but being that I am new to the sport, I am going to stay out and watch the real surfers have their fun.
