Nicaragua Surf Report for Saturday, August 26, 2017

Brian Scott

Hey there, what’s happening Saturday party people! SBS here with a full on party report with some of my new amigos. Sorry for the delayed report this evening, but today was full on surf and seek mode with the Philly Crew, and they scored some super fun waves… Check it out!

Brian Scott

Let me introduce these fine gents hailing all way from Philadelphia. We’ve got Bruer (aka Bro-dog), Miguel Dagito and “Philly” Al, jumping in for the panga search for waves mission. We started early so we could head up the coast to see what we could find for their last day here.

Brian Scott

When we arrived to one of the spots we thought we’d check first, there was no stopping Mike D. from gunning for it, as the water had ideal perfect conditions with very little surfers on it. Go get em Mikey!

Brian Scott

The lighting, wind, tide and yes, also swell was just perfect for this spot this AM.

Brian Scott

Bruer, taking in the elements on his trusty twin fin.

Brian Scott

Tropical warm water, surfing fun waves with a few of your friends, how else would you like to start your day?

Brian Scott

As the tide started to get just right for this wave, it seems like some of that swell that was supposed to be showing a little more today manifested itself with some outside little sneaker sets like this.

Brian Scott

Luckily Al was in place for this one outside so he could have some tubos para his desayunar.

Brian Scott

He even left a little room for some dessert, “off the top cake”.

Brian Scott

The vibe was pretty mellow out there, which is why Mike and Bruer found some time to party it up by sharing a wave. They are related, so in actuality this is a family wave.

Brian Scott

There were a few locals out. Sean here, teaching his young grasshopper students what he’s been perfecting at this spot for as long as I can remember. I think it’s safe to say, Sean was about the same age as the kid in the foreground when he first started surfing this very same wave.

Brian Scott

Some female ripper talent was out as well.

Brian Scott

Like I said, not too many surfers out, but the people who were here to share some fun waves were having one heck of a good Saturday morning surf!

Brian Scott

Miguel the “Marlin Whisperer” Dagito a.k.a. Scuba Steve, still has some paddle strength post 500 lbs 8 hour Marlin fight..

Brian Scott

We joked earlier when I asked him if he knew where the quick release was while he was strapped to that 500 lb giant fish and what he’d have done if that thing decided to take him for a ride out side the boat. We both chuckled…. Glad he’s still here to tell the tale!

Brian Scott

He dedicates this wave to the Taste Buds back in Philly. Yewwww!!!!

Brian Scott

Ok, you’re right! I can’t tell a fish tale like that and not deliver some kind of proof… so check out this little portion from a really long video from their live view stream that was taken of this giant sea monster breaching twice for the SUBU crew; while Scuba Steve was locked in!

Brian Scott

Back to the surfing action… The boys had there fill of some tasty waves, but a surf exploration isn’t a proper surf exploration unless you charter off to check out some other surfing spots. So we all decided to roll the dice and leave some fun waves to see if we could go find the same if not better waves. The Phiily crew would also like to give a BIG Shoutout to Bird Gang and Rick “The Carpe Catcher” Rymes!

Brian Scott

Sure enough, when we got to where we thought we should check out next, there wasn’t another single person in the lineup. The waves weren’t quite right (yet) since this place is a little tide dependent, but we saw some really good potential.

Brian Scott

 Bru-dog, a.k.a “The Commish” on a front side runner!

Brian Scott

and it kept running…

Brian Scott

This thing was like Forest Gump, because it just wouldn’t stop.

Brian Scott

Yeah Bruer, not a bad wave, hows them arms for that paddle back out though?? This spots not only a leg burner, but it’s also noddle maker of your arms!

Brian Scott

Mike D. Not to confuse with say, a particular Beastie Boy Mike D, but this Mike D. was on fire all day.

Brian Scott

So Hey ladies, Make some noise & Ch Ch Check it out!

Brian Scott

Cuz he’s Body Movin’..

Brian Scott

slow and low that is the tempo.

Brian Scott

So what'cha, what'cha, what'cha want?

Brian Scott

Meanwhile, Philadelphia Jesús is over here walking on water, sinking his teeth into a sick little left!

Brian Scott

Watcha think Al, is this some holy water or what? I think Al says YES!

Brian Scott

Alrighty my new amigos! It has been one heck of a fun day exploring with you. You came, you saw, and you did what I think almost everyone here comes to try and do which is conquer and hook the biggest damn fish seen in these waters by some very experienced and seasoned fishermen. Nicely done, and I have to say it was my pleasure cruising along side you three amigos all day today. Safe travels back home and we look forward to seeing you back down again real soon! Cheers Hermanos!! ~
