Went out to Rooster Rock to scope out the place… Seems like it could be a great place for great sessions… Obviously just rain today, although I had a great time playing on the beach..

I would love to check it out on a windy day… maybe tomorrow.. However, I really want more time at the pond (I leave Saturday morning),.. So my plan is to try Rooster in the morning to get my a*s out of bed, and know that I could very well end up driving out to the pond if is better than RR… Or somewhere else on the coast… I just want wind..
(** I’m headed out now to get my palm read… **)

Anyone have input or planning to hit anyplace specific tomorrow?

Thanks Nak, for the lowdown on the forecasts..

looks like Rooster may go Psycho in the Am.

Anyone up for a true hardcore dawn patrol?

upon further refelction, I have decided that getting up that early when its htat cold. Is just kinda stupid.

Maybe we can fetch a mid turkey day session like around 10:00 or so.


How is the water level at that one place these days>?....

Water level was great at around 1 ish today.. Looked like you could launch from
anywhere.. Is "launch 1" (right out the parking lot ) a good place to launch

Water level has come back down to mid summer levels.

You can launch pretty much anywhere at Rooster. Depends on if there is a beach or not.

Keep your eye on a 10am Tday. I'm in!

Launch 1 might be just mud right now... you can launch there, but not so fun! Very Happy Check it out, If it's too muddy head up to the other spot.
