Great reply Saltheart, goes well with my thread about BIG Surf and pfd's. I wasn't even out that deep, mid thigh but a wall of a swell took my a$$ out. I scared the hell out of the woman watching me. She saw me walk out there and was shaking her head in disbelief. Then after my "swim" I could see she turned her light on and was standing in her door watching to see if I came back up..
At the end of the night I was walking back by her porch and she came out and asked if I crazy
I said "ya, a little-but I got stripes" holding the keeper I took home...She just shook her head and went back inside... "I LIVE FOR THIS"
