Larry, I had the same problem with the weeds initially. But then I followed the beach south (to the left of the river outlet), all the way around the point. On the other side of the point, there were much less weeds in the water, the waves were smaller, and there is much more structure. You fished to the right side? Thats probably why I didn't see you, b/c I was there at the same time. Good thing to keep in mind, when there are weeds, you can try around the point where there's a little shelter and the current is a little different.
