Drove down to the beach this morning because it showed wind was north last night and this morning. Get down there and there is no wind and the surf is crashing. Water still looked decent just rough. So I headed to west cove.
Fished the main canal and lost one nice speck that spit the hook at the boat.
Drifted all the way down the south bank picking up one red and several croaker on my way to old dock. I kept hearing thunder in the distance but couldn't see any weather.
About 11:45 i decided to make the paddle back. Well i was about 10 mintues too late. Tide was ripping out of the canal and lighting was hitting all around me. I was also greeted with a stiff west wind. I paddled for 40 minutes straight no stopping to try to beat weather. All in all i got real nervous today!
