Kelly Night Surfing

The Chokka boats take off from Port St Francis and stay out there for weeks. Close enough to see town, far enough away to form their own floating satellite suburb. Mooring off J-Bay, they switch on their blinding halogen lights on dusk and wait for the stunned squid to helplessly flock to their net like moths to flame. Of course a tremendous by-catch of all this, is that it throws up one of the most striking backdrops in all of surfdom. {flv}Kelly-Lights{/flv}
