The wind was really high today; up to about 30 mph. It's finally settled down to a reasonable speed; around 13 mph, and it's currently NNW, which isn't typically as good as a NE, but it is way better than a South wind. The next tide will start in around 4:45am, and be high at 10am.
They did pick up some Spot, and some Croaker, out there closer to the end. Some fared better than others.
Crabs are gone for the season.
