Comments:   Was not as big as yesterday. Not even close. I had such high expectations for a building swell when in fact it was much smaller than Monday. Still, it's always good to get out in the water. Only a few folks out there, all friendly. I've always had good vibes out in the lineups in this area. Always a joke or a hoot, even in small waves like these. We were all on shortboards and all struggling to make anything of the conditions. The water was clear and you could see the sand bottom and at times the reef. I'm really interested in starting to figure out this little reef.
