Day: Saturday 24th Jan 2009
Time: 4pm-ish
Location: The Flume, Warrnambool Vic
Wind: Strong sea breeze
Swell: 2 foot washing machine with the odd section
Something else: Australia Day long weekend camping trip to Warrnambool
Conditions: Old memories come rushing back, lots of things have changed in this town since our Uni days but not a lot has in the surf. Afternoon southerly buster (onshore), with 2 foot of southern juice, get caught on the sand bar on the paddle back out through a set and you know your not at home any more. Nothing special but great to get back out at the Flume, knowing we were only there for 3 days and would be heading home to better banks and surf options!
Vibe: Surfed with Mr Johns, no other distractions apart from the seal rolling around over the Grannies Grave reef/kelp bed.
