I was thinking about going down there to get some video of people being sucked out....
This weekend the table is set for Hazard fatality: Fair weather on the weekend, and a tropically influenced sea....

Def not fishing there when the surfs up. Today it was almost flat calm so it was rather easy to move around and i didnt need to dodge waves. If there are big ass waves crashing who in thier right mind would be out there! I guess there is always some idiot risking it.

there is a starnge thing that happens down there and i have fallen for it once. You will think that the waves are all coming in at the same height and you'll set up shop thinking you are safe, then in about 15 minutes a humungous swell will roll in up to your hips and take you down and out. This usually happens on the incoming tide. It can be good there sometimes. Other times it is devoid of bass. its safer at newton ave.

Those deep water areas can be very dangerous. Like Eben said they can sneak up on you. Its unpredictable as for months it can be fine then one night you get the rogue wave that catches you off guard in a spot you thought was high and dry. In a matter of seconds an area can be dry, and then with a swell have 10 feet of water in it. Not a place you want to go in.

I've spent a lot of time snokeling the water in those areas and other deep shorelines. Getting in and out of the water there in the day time alone with flippers can be living hell if you choose the wrong stretch. I've seen guys that chose the wrong spots and they get smashed mulitple times. 2 weeks ago I got caught in a rip that I had a hard time getting out of even with fins on. Like anywhere you have to respect the water no matter how large or small.
