wet a line in the surf

after a pretty Sunrise atop the Sunset Beach Bridge looking up the ICW and along the Causeway this morning.. walked into the surf at 40th Street...brrrrrr.. water temp at 66º.. not nice...water was dirty-uglee ..not good for fishing.. plugged for about a half hour with a Hopkins.. nada.. stopped at the lake on the drive home.. same same zippo

a busy early morning at the beach

more people than usual for Sunrise at the beach this Sunday morning.. last of the Easter vacationers are still in town.. shopping down in Myrtle Beach as per our usual on Sunday morning.. snapped a couple of pics of the tourist helicopters...another pretty Sunrise and sunny day in the high 70's.. nice weather..

such a nice day once again

a drive over to the beach at 40th street for this morning's Sunrise.. then on the way back stopped off at the Pier to see my friend Tom.. he was the only one fishing up there.. dirty water with ocean water temps at 63º left a lot to be desired.. no fish being caught.. stopped at the lake on the drive back home... saw some golfers oblivious to the resident Gator up on the bank.. happens all the time ..

a bright sunny day

that started off with a pretty Sunrise.. a stop at the lake proved fruitless..then temps up to 77º the remainder of the sunny day..
