Sardine Run .. back on!

After fears of the Sardine Run being a no show, the sards have been spotted on the Transkei coast. A couple of smaller shoals are cruzing with in 1km from shore with a larger shoal still far off.

The guys in the 'know' are saying it still is not as big as it should be, i suppose only time will tell.

If you have any news please send me a mail or comment below.

All good ....

Spearfishing - Surfing Update - Good Weather Ahead

Finally the forecasts are showing some winter type weather. There are some small south wests due over the next few days. They are not big but should clean up the water, not sure if we will get any waves tho.

There are some good off shore winds due tomorrow ...pity the tides are high early!!

Kelly Slater Wins Globe Pro Fiji

Kelly Slater wins his 3rd Asp World Tour title for 2008 at Tavarua in Fiji. This will put him well in the lead and in a good spot to claim another world title. .....Kelly is a freak!!

On the other hand I thought that I was surfing like Kelly ...probably more like Wilber and snapped my surfboard in a thick Sun Rise barrel ...damn!!!

Tomorrow looks promising for those who can surf in the middle of the day as the high tide will put a damper on things first thing in the morning.

Party on ....

Hey just a reminder it is Salty Diver social evening on Friday nite, pull in for the good ol 'Dop n Chop'

Finally some Surf

Gee its about time .... we dot some waves. It was not epic because the banks were still all over the place after the 3weeks of east winds.

Tomorrow looks promising if the east holds off, pleaz hold off! The forecast shows a nasty little east all night!!! that will be enough to screw everything up!!

I have had a bunch of people commenting on the apparent Xenophobia attacks in Mozambique.
And it seems like always things might have been blown out of proportion.
Check out Mozambique Xenophobia on my blog if this interests you.

Please feel free to comment on any posts especially if you can help bring clarity to the issues at hand.

Have fun
