Re: Tie it All Down !
That's a good article, Hank.
There have been days when the fishing was slow and I have decided to spend a little time in the waves. I go in and drop my gear, then go back out and try a little of everyhing. It's a great way to get more comfortable with your boat. Take a few waves broadside. Punch through a few going out and even try surfing a few, which doesn't work very well, but it definitely gives you a better idea of what to expect.
I like what the article said about planting your paddle in the base of the wave if you come in broadside. It really helps.
Days when it's been hot out on the water, getting clobbered by a few waves can be a nice way to cool down, too!
