Big onshore blow for the past two days, heavy rip and surf...was wading a little in shorts this am, I have a 3mil farmerjohn wetsuit on its way...cool wind keeping the flys down, perfect morning for a hunt! No gold or silver though!, lotta clad and sinkers and whatnot...these cuts are so big and long, a guy smokejumps up and down the beach to hit a patch of targets..a fellow should stay at it on days like this..if the wind shifts and knocks down the surf, it will be superb hunting for a day or two then it sands right back in. There used to be 20yds of beach here in a heavily used area where I have found several gold and lots of silver in the past..did not find one pulltab today! All the light stuff got swept out..thought you warm water salties might like to see what we hunt up here, black sand and all. That scoop is my super ultralight that I generally only use dry sand hunting, its no good for deep targets in the wet...but with so many miles to cover, a fellow has to go light and get an idea of where to bring in the heavy gear this afternoon or tomorrow!

Doing an all day hunt and I would need Heli-support to airlift me out of there.
