What an Amazing World
My job took me to the Tacoma/Seattle area this week on business.
While flying over the midwest, I took this picture. The cloud formation appeared to resemble a river at 36000 feet. Thought you would enjoy the view.
What an amazing world!!
Rip Currents – Friend or Foe
Rip currents are a familar sight on the Outer Banks. They injure many swimmers each season.
A rip current is an outward flowing river of water which had piled up on to the beach. We find more rips occur during north east and east winds.
Although, they may be hazardous for the bather, they work wonders for the surf fisherman.
I have found the best spots on the beach for fishing are where the water flow now parallel to the beach begins it perpendictular exit off shore. This is where bait gets tumbled in the wash – dazed and exhausted. Weary predators are eagerly waiting for that easy meal.
My hope is that their preference is my bait.
Welcome Back
Finally got some time to get back to the Carolinasaltaire blog. Many things have occurred here is beautiful Carolina but will not bore you with them now.
Glad to be back!!
