Wow, what a jerk!
Ok SD Bingo, you are dead wrong. First of all my name is Dean, one of my favorite surfers (Dean Morrison) has a nickname "Dingo", he's from Australia, if you didn't already know. Secondly I am actually not a middle aged man who works all the time, I'm actually 20 years old, surf all the time, I don't work, and I am a full time student. You on the other hand have bingo in your display name, this begs the question are you a old fart in the Remmington Club in RB that enjoys playing Bingo, critizing random people online, and probably eats a lot of prunes and enjoys his morning bowel movement. You are a complete jerk, I am helping others by giving descriptive observations that I have made in the past. You can take what I say about the river mouth and think whatever you want about it. But you have no reason to be hostile bro. BTW maybe I am a little anal, but thats my Kraut side showing through, and hey Germans make some of the best things in the world because of it, so shove it.

D-E-N-G-O, D-A-N-G-O, & Deango was his name-O!
It's like this Deango:
An australian wild dog is a Dingo.
You, however, think you're a Deango.
The only place you really get to 'go' to lately is your place of work.
Clearly you posess a modicum of intelligence; perhaps a bit more than average.
Once upon a time in your life, most likely when you were younger, surfing was your focus.
Now that the closest you get is whilst detouring along PCH during your regular commute thru SD county, you'll get to 'check it' on the fly, so you've begun to 'overanalyze' the surf; pretty much to the point were you've become ANAL about it.
BRO: Be happy with what you've had, & happy with what you CAN get. If you still catch an occasional good day, then stop bragging about what you think you know about surfing, just be grateful for paddling out at all. Because you may NEVER see perfectly peeling, head high + 1/4 Del mar rivermouth again; it only looked like it was 'all that' on 1 of your fly-by checks there anyway!

It's Like This
Look, this place is very inconsistent, and it hardly ever forms and breaks correctly w/o closing out. But at the same time there is some similarities between it and its cousin to the south, the San Diego rivemouth aka Avalanche. First of all they both are rivermouths they both are dog beaches during the winter and they both can have nice hollow sections. Now thats where the similarities end. Avalanche is consistent with at least some kind of manageable surf almost all through out the year, Del Mar Rivermouth on the other hand basically is crap most of the time. But on occasion it gets really good. For example remember this last spring when we had several abnormally large swells come through. Well on one occasion in early May when we had a swell coming from the West North West I remember driving past at about mid tide and seeing head high and a quarter surf that was just peeling perfectly. There was only four guys out and it was freaking awesome. This is not the first time that I have seen this happen there either. In my own personal opinion I think this place if given the right conditions can hold way bigger surf than Avalanches. But at the same time the Del Mar rivermouth goes off when most other places are twice as good as it anyways. So it's kinda pointless unless you want to have a nice big wave completely by yourself and eat dog shit while you surf.
