Narooma Bar

[Benzeenees]

Finally got the right conditions to try the infamous Narooma Bar last Wednesday. Left from Apex Park - a very nice ramp with heaps of parking and great fish cleaning tables. The swell was flat as we left the entrance between the breakwalls and started to relax. Hang on - there's a big swell rearing up about 50m out. That's the bar! Over it without any difficulty, but if you're going out for the first time, the actual bar is about 50m outside the entrance, so keep moving. Coming back, the entrance is a lot narrower than it seems going out! Montague Is was amazing especially the rip at the north eastern end and the Fowlhouse on the south eastern end. The current was running at up to 7kph. No kings, though there were a lot on the sounder. 1 snapper south of the Fowlhouse before the wind came up. We got lots of yakkas and slimeys in a little bay about 1 km south of the entrance.
