Austin Mcwhorter was at a fishing contest around the North Pinellas beaches hosted by the Ozona Fish Camp marina in Ozona. I’ve been surfing with Austin for probably a decade now. We’ve even been over to the bay to fish the Safety Harbor area. Austin’s boat took second place in a pool of 20 boats. Great job on another successful tournament result.

Yana Smith is pretty cool. She’s a mother with a son who she takes surfing. She caught some great waves the other day! Happy Mother’s day to all the mothers.

Onshore Surf 1:30pm, 2:30pm, & 7pm

It looks really fun, surprisingly fun. The surf actually looks solid. I’d call it knee to thigh right now with the size to get to waist to chest when the tide drops out. Luckily the tide is dropping now until 7pm. The water level is high so the dropping tide should give it better shape. All afternoon and evening is going to be the time to surf. The low tide is 7pm.

2:30pm: Moon is trash right now. I can’t deal with northwest swells at Honeymoon. It’s just so mushy. I’m headed to the key 🔑. Oh wait, Tommy just rolled up. We’re surfing here I think.

7pm: The swell has glassed off. Surprisingly the size of the surf has actually dropped. The tide has falled super low. The super low tides aren’t great for anywhere around here. It’s still windy but it’s directly onshore so the waves are glassy. A ton of people have shown up. The lineup got pretty full today. It’s been a fun day.

There’s more fun to be had today. It looks better than yesterday. It may just be because I brought the longboard today. It’s easily as good as this time yesterday. Come on out. Catch a few good waves. The downside is that there’s a long wait between sets (yes there’s sets), and it’s really cold.
