suckers galore

Post by deep diver »

Met up with Keith on Sunday in the nasty weather. Wasn't bad at first with a little wind and some rain and between dives the sun came out and the wind had died down. On the second dive we noticed that it was getting dark under the water. When we came up the sun was gone and we were completely socked in. Wind, rain 2'-3' swells, thank goodness we were going with the wind going back. When we got back to the Truck, peeled our drysuits off and wore the woolies home as it was just pouring buckets.

Back to under the water....
From 35'-40' I could look up and see the boat and as we went deeper it got better. Did find several octopus, and this one with all his suckers sticking up. Found the first albus of the year and this little grunt sticking out of the pipe. All in all it was a good day except for the heavy rain.

Even a rainy day on the hood is a great day!
I really like that grunt picture, Dale!

Thanks everyone! We went far north at flagpole, we had never been that far before and actually found a sunken boat trailer out there and a sea whip garden and a few other trinkets
