Yeah, I knew you were going. I saw it puff up at 10am and knew it was coming on a bit earlier than predicted.

I got caught 40 miles out in my bud's 26 Alby and it was blowing 35 steady SE when we passed the light tower. NEVER again for me on an iffy forecast!

I was hoping to go Fri, Sat or Sun but the weather looks to be crap. I really want to get my rig out there for at least a couple more trips.

Nice work on your fish...glad you boys got home safe. I am sure no beer was sacraficed during your journey!
