Comments:
It was small and no one was out. It was good for a half hour lunch session. Water still cold, around 52 degrees still. Waves in the knee high range and breaking in shallow water. The good news is a lot of the sand is back. Just as quickly as it was gone it's back now. Weather or not the bars are back yet here is hard to tell in knee high water. The most memorable thing about this session is the oil in the water. As bad as I've ever seen it out here. Worse than Sands or Pitz gets. Imagine a two foot wide line of oil and tar floating in the surf line. Imagine duck diving a 2 foot wave thats face is completely filled with tar. There was no escape from it. Everywhere. I caught 5 or 6 waves, the lefts were best, and got outta there.
