South Laguna Quicky Report

Swells ~2ft; Pretty Surgey; Viz 5-15; Surf 1-1.5

No halis sighted; Decent number of sandies/calis around.

I heard that distinct croaking that gets every spearo excited partway through the day and later saw something big, long and tasty-looking pass under me as I was breathing up. Out of range though, s***!

I'm getting in the water tomorrow at 6am at a spot where I saw daytime bugs last week if you're down. I'll text you when I get up in case you're crazy enough to get up that early too.
