Wow how sad..... If you are new to fishing this area please beware that on the north end from the Bug Light on the bay side to North Beach on the ocean side, there are areas with VERY STEEP drop offs right from the shoreline.... The currents are also very swift in the area as well, especially around full and new moon tide cycles...

You either want to avoid these areas or be very careful around them...

Well that is just plain sad and tragic. Prayers to family and friends of the deceased as this must seem like a senseless loss of life. May he rest in peace.

Its sad. Never ready for that. But at least he died doing what he loved. Better than at some factory stooped over a machine
