Hello Friends,
Thought I’d duck down to the beach for one last look as the last of the light drained out of Monday afternoon. The clouds were getting lower, the rain was threatening, and the wind wasn’t backing off. Checked Whiterock, Fishermans and Brownwater first. At least one brave type was out at Whiterock, but I didn’t see him catch anything. A few bodyboarders were having a play with the little ones washing along the rocks at Fishermans but it was just too small and inconsistent to tempt anyone into waiting for a set at Brownwater.
Went around to Collaroy and there were a fair number in the water there. Quality was strictly ordinary but with a mal under your feet, you had a chance of picking up something mildly interesting. There were a few bods up north of the pipe, but as with Whiterock, I didn’t see anyone catch anything.
From the look of the models and the Bureau’s forecast, we aren’t going to have much relief from these conditions until about Friday.
Here’s the latest from the Bureau this arvo:
