I have actually been scoring fun waves most mornings for the last couple of weeks. Nothing big but enough fun to put a smile on my dial at work.

I have found that the weather reports can be a little decieving and given how the tides can greatly affect perth's beachies (AND THE BANKS ARE NOT TOO BAD) there is more often than not a wave along the coast in small swell periods.
Not giving any details away publically but there is a couple of good banks at a very popular north metro spot that I have had to myself and a few others most really early mornings. There has been a few days where I have been let down and had to be content with watching the sunrise with a mocha in my hand. Still not a bad way to start the day
