I've been pounding the same 4 mile stretch of shoreline for two years now several times a week and I still will take a minute and watch the sets of waves come in and see when the big wave comes (and it always does) and find a spot where I can back out of the way of it. Even with a fair amount of caution displayed I've still had a couple of scary moments-especially on the rocks of the cliffwalk. I got stuck on a sandbar on MV one night because I was too busy catching and not watching the tide. I've had a couple of moments at the Pt Jude lite-slippery rocks and heavy surf are a dangerous combo. Never underestimate the power of the ocean.
What's the old saying, an ounce of prevention...
