Somewhere in Nicaragua
Buenos días chicos! Top of the morning to ya’ll! Got out there for the super early bird (pre-mega-windy conditions). The winds were already starting to blow, but the conditions and especially the water color was incredible! Grab a cup of coffee or your morning beverage of choice and enjoy your Tuesday surf report!
Gotta love that warm glistening early morning light, especially hitting those peaky rights.
Only a very small handful of surfers out by the time I got down there, but for those who made it down even before me, were getting some fun waves at the crack of dawn. . . like this dudes crack off this fun little section.
Meanwhile, someone else was still still sleeping in. . . (BIG YAWN!!!!) lol !
The reef was wide awake and ready to play early.
And one of the early birds who loves surfing, diving and anything aquatic at this spot which is literally only a couple hundred yards from his front doorstep. . . and all around good dude and a man’s man, Mr. Hunter!
You can see that the texture was already starting to form with those wind gusts that will only get stronger as the day progresses.
But the glassy and warble look to the wave faces looked or reminded me of those ice caves you see in National Geographic pics.
It was a little lully right when I got down there, and then out of nowhere it kinda started to turn on….!
Like as in the sets staring roping in and with is came more size and nice long walls for doing big carves and taking the football field length rides all the way to the inside.
Like this here, where the inside section can be a little bit gnarly, but if you time it right, you can pull off some rather really cool photogenic images!
Hayden and Hunter splitting the peak. It’s always a coin toss when you have two surfers (both whom you know will make the wave) but I had to follow my instinct and the better lighting (the right of course) and track down my other waterman amigo, Hayden.
A big fat Larry layback and I know Hayden had a bunch of stuff to do today (much like myslef) but before he paddled out he said he was actually on the fence with going diving out there today. But by the looks of it, I’m sure he’s stoked he opted for the surf sesh!
One last look. . . . you always gotta take that one last look, especially when you’re leaving and you see it’s now turning on. So you gotta think to yourself… Hmmmmm maybe I should paddle back out??? Well….. it’s your call my friend!

RECENT REPORTS
Hey amigos! Welcome to Saturday evening’s surf report from French Fries and Panga Drops. The surf was surprisingly bigger today. I guess it’s the front runners of the coming swell. Kenny sending it on a head-high set.
Hey everyone! Welcome to Friday evening’s surf report from French Fries. After a long streak of very fun waves, the conditions were finally sub-par. Still ride-able at French Fries though.
Hey amigos! Welcome to Thursday afternoon’s surf report from Pangas and French Fries. The swell didn’t drop nearly as much as forecasted, but it was a little bit smaller. It was very clean and pulsing while I took pictures.

Hola surfistas! Happy Monday and if I had to describe todays surfing conditions, waves, and all around general good vibrations out in the lineup. . . I would have to quote one of my old (and actually quite famous in the surfing world), my buddy Bruce Brown’s (RIP Legend!) his ever so classic line…. “It..
Happy Sunday Funday everyone! It was a pretty mellow and low key Sunday surf day. Really small and offshore so the pickin’s were slim. But as always, the beach life was happening!
Welcome this morning with a smile! I got down to the beach a couple of hours before high tide and the waves looked fun :p
