Jaymann's Blog – June 2015 Archive (26)

"Do the terms 'germs' or dog breath' strike a chord with anyone in the room?" 

Tuesday, June 30, 2015: (Late day) Just like that, the ocean water is clean and blue/green. And just as quickly the winds have chopped in out of the south, pushing 20…

After finally making a good point with a woman ... 

Monday, June 29, 2015: West winds still dominate but dropping off. The ocean remains off-color with a residual peaky 3- to 4-foot swell. It’s still going to take some time for things to go back to clean. The dropping winds should allow…

"You're not gonna let go, right???????????"

Sunday, June 28, 2015: The west winds are honkin’ one good, shifting slightly from SW to W to NW in the process; gusts to 20 k. The west winds will prevail through tomorrow but will shift south for a protracted summer-pattern stretch -- for most…

I catch hell for jerking the chains of cats. Turns out I don't even have to taunt cats to make them do stupid things.

Geez, didn't see that coming.…

Flashback: Heading to work 

Let's get weekly wid it : …

Hey, I still camp out but I'm way-done with those days of roughing it ... besides there's something cool about watching "River Monsters" on the 50-inch screen inside this.  …

Umpire: "That's Strike One! ... I mean, if that's OK with you."

Monday, June 22, 2015: Lots of west winds and warm temps. The beach is quite nice, though the water has dirtied a bit. Fine fishing conditions. Surf casting and inlet fishing should turn on late. There are bass to be had,…

"It was a simple answer. When they asked me if I thought it would be fun to have a cat in the house, I said 'No! ...  With an emphasis on the 'No!'" '

Saturday, June 20, 2015: Boy, you want a treat take a dip in the ocean. No, that’s not a dare. I just took an…

Not a way to go ...

This a.m., Surf City ... …

Wednesday, June 17, 2015: The shark hubbub has gone ballistic – and, no, I didn’t even remotely start it. The bull shark that did the biting sounded the starting gun – a gun that might come back to bite him/her.  

There is this semi-absurd debate about finding the culprit shark and…

 Uh, how about this on a troll??!!!

Tuesday, June 16, 2015: The west winds have moved in, late-day. Waves are tiny and the water is clean. By tomorrow, I’d suggest some beach fluking, mainly early day (off shore winds) and after 6 pm (light onshores.).

Bassing is…

Sunday, June 14, 2015: It’s “purdy as piture” out there. I don’t know if you could script a better beach day than this, providing you have some super-duper sunscreen. It’s a full-blown 10 on the burn scale.…

 Some challenges require a whole new strategy ... 

Friday, June 12, 2015: If you can trust buoys reports, there is some seriously warm ocean water – above average for mid-June -- just out at sea. Low to mid-70s readings -- ready to blow in if we get a long enough period of west winds (Saturday) and then…

You can't make this stuff up ...

Tuesday, June 09, 2015: Hard southerly winds for much of the day gave way to the sudden heat of westerlies, late afternoon. Those winds could clean up the riled ocean, which has been pretty much low on the fishability…

Monday, June 08, 2015: Nice day, not so nice winds out of the south. At least we had that surprise wind reprieve for parts of the weekend. (Check for updates later today -- as news comes in.)
