Today was NOT a yak 101 level day
I got out to the third reef easy enough and the viz and current was great.
Conditions kept getting worse and worse till I said enough and jumped back into the yak and then I knew I was in trouble. Wind had switched to WSW and was howelin strong. As soon as I got my anchor off the bottom I was getting blown to the Bahamas It took me 1 1/2hours to paddle upwind back to shore from the 3rd reef.
I did luck out and get 5 hogs.![]()
