Give Up the Juice, notes from The Watt

"Take a bow, let there be no doubt
In your mind this is the time
Got to use what you got
This is what this thing is all about!"
                  -Squeeze the Fruit, Commodores

  So I'm watchin' the surf report all day this past Thursday; thigh to waist and clean in the AM, wind shifts to ESE in the PM, thigh high sets with added chop... some waist peaks.  I pull out the7'4" Lynn Shell...change is good.  On the ride into town to pick up Ken, the air is hot, humid and still; about 90F.  Soon as we get within a mile, the winds pick up to a good 15mph. Nice breeze.
Juicer, 7/7


 




   67th, the Holiday, and we got the best break we've had in a while.  Thigh to waist with a lil bump but nice right side swell... and not bangin' the beachhead either.  To top it off, we got former surfman Frankie C now combining surf fishing, brew and grub with his family.  Always good to get back in touch with those you haven't seen for a while.

Feeling it
 

















   After squeezin' the fruit out of enough choice fronts to warrant a quickie break, HT makes his appearance. Throw back a Natty Lite from Franklin, check the catch (a Spot or 2, yeah ok) and I'm gittin' in for another 45 or so 'n juice a few more.  Sold on the stoke, pure and simple.
Sold
   My son meets us at Smitty's for wings and a couple mo brews to top off.  Now THAT'S what it's all about! Good night, Walter.
