It was a dark and gloomy




Morning! 7am and it's still twilight. Clean conditions with a slight SSE breeze. Haven't seen a set yet but the waves are waist high at best. Long slow rollers with some face to work with. Long lulls. Most consistent and shapely just north of the reef in front of the grass. Pretty feeble. And the incoming tide is not helping. 30 guys out.

Have a good one

High tide lines




Waist high set waves battling the 5+ high tide and for the most part the tide is winning. Fair shape with the biggest sets closing out. Moderate surface ripple with some light offshores. Not much going on in between the sets. 5 people out. And one SUP; he is getting all the waves.

Have a good one

The not so endangered brown trout...




When you visit a friends house and use the toilet that they forgot to flush do you look in and say "wow, that looks too good to pass up" and then proceed to splash toilet water all over yourself and squirt some up your nose for good measure? No? Well that's essentially what you would be doing if you went in the ocean at 15th street in Del Mar over the last few days. And yes, the big yellow "KEEP OUT - SEWAGE CONTAMINATED WATER signs are still up. So why in the world would people stop, read the sign and then keep right on walking into the water? Illiterate? Don't care? Peer pressure? Don't trust the government? Any ideas, let me know.


No surf report from me today 'cause it doesn't matter.

Have a good one

Nope, there's nothing here to see...




Breezy and flat. Not much going on surf wise. Not much of a swell and the conditions are what you'd expect after a storm; lots of chop and chunk. BTW, there was enough rain to raise the poo index to high. But that's not what's keeping people out of the water this morning. It's the total lack of surf.

Have a good one
