    First beach hunt of 2017

    Hi all,
    Got out for almost 2 hours hoping to find some good drops from the polar bear plunge on new years day. Not much luck, just over a buck in change and no jewelry. Couldn't get into the water as the surf was too rough. By the looks of it there must have been a lot of alcohol involved with folks going home dressed a lot lighter than they came!
