Bit of long period SW swell with offshores next few days. Hoping for Castlefreke Tomorrow, Dougmore Wednesday and would be stoked to get something in Louisburgh/ Elly Bay on Thursday.
Jaysus man that is some amount of driving!!
Headed to Dougmore yesterday but it was way too small and cross-on to get in. Walked the beach for the first time ever. It would have never happened otherwise. Getting excited about Strandhill late tonight and first thing in the morning. Lovely small pulse coming through.

That looks a lot better, the other way felt strangely claustraphobic

any advance on 5.02 . wasn't the first in either. four others in within 15mins.
good waves but the crowd was stoopid - about 15/20 guys in by 6.30. i recognised guys from from bundoran, cork, and waterford - in fact there was even a dublin based lad. might have to go a bit more for the afternoon session.

had the day off yesterday and spent it at the local. 2ft longboard glassy waves.
All was fine till 4 lads arrived and started dropping on me on every waves just to mess in the white water while another taking photos from the beach. I had to yell and loudly requested that they go and fornicate themselves. They left after an hour only to be replaced by two lads in short in short board who just paddled over and sat right in front of me not catching anything ... followed by a red foam board and a huge 10ft bic -the guy couldn't even lie on his board and i found out that his board wasn't even waxed.
...also not of them said hello back .
Summer's back alright
