Saturday Downwinder

[Whitey]

We get a very nice play groung of waves just south of Hurricane Pass off the north end of Calidisi Island on a S, SSW, & W and glass on the inside of the sand bar just east of the waves.
Will be there all day tomorrow. If the forcast is even close tomorrow should be stellar. Hope to see you.

do you plan on launching from honeymoon of the causeway?

[BigR]

I have no choice, from the causeway then upwind out the pass


should be windy by after 10am?

What is with the north wind at Clearwater and building? Seems all forecasting is f'd up at this point.

[BigR]

actually we just found a 2nd car for the polesmurfers ( they'll go fred howard ), so we'll launch from honeymoon, Danny, you in?

[Whitey]

yep if you look at the current forcast for Ikite and then the current conditions they are 35 mph off and 180 degrees.

FH sensor confirms the wind is blowing out of the north though which is not what I expected.

I'm gona take the boat out and set up just off the north end of Caladisi Island. Too many sail boats and people to safley use Dunedin Causeway as a launch during the weekend with an onshore situation. Much safer and easier on your gear to go just east of the vollyball net and west of dog beach on Honeymoon Island to launch.

Yeah. Weird stuff. I was not expecting to see absolute zeros at every sensor in the bay, either.

I am going to wait this one out until the wind God's figure out what they are doing. Weird.
I hate to pull a Debbie Downer, especially with all the great forecasts for today, but fog and wind don't usually go hand in hand.
I can't see my own back yard right now.
Things better change!!
