Viz has been pretty damn good though imo. I like seeing things 60 feet away imo.

Re: Viz Reports Thread
Hahaha! I'll say it again for today (10-23-11), yes, I dove again today with Jeremy around 1500 at EUP. Viz was marginal at 15 FSW.
When was the last time you did something for the first time?

Re: Viz Reports Thread
Met Bassman at TTN after his work early this AM - viz was a solid 50-60' - just gorgeous.
If Cardiver had showed up I'd say viz was 61'.
Get out and dive, people!

Re: Viz Reports Thread
Redondo tonight...saw Bob again. I didnt have high expectation for viz as there was a chop and a fairly good size ebbing exchange. However I was wrong. Tons of Sailfin Sculpins and Gunnels. 4 or 5 red octos, 3 GPO's, Greenlings, a few stubby squid, and Bob.

Fantastic Video, Laura!
Re: Viz Reports Thread
I did the West Seattle Fishing Reef off of the Aluminator today and it was the best viz I've seen there at 30 ft, possibly 40. Incredible numbers of shiner perch, the other perch varieties, several handsome vermillion rock fish, and lingcod o'plenty. We also saw a monstrous sea lion checking out the boat at the surface. The water was so calm we could see another team making their ascent and tell who was who from the deck of the boat when they were 20 feet below the surface.
I'm tempted to do some deeper dives with this kind of viz and can only hope it's as good past 150 as well.

Re: Viz Reports Thread
WOW! What a nice show you got! Good thing you had the camera... otherwise you would have been written off as a lunatic. "Yeah, he swam by us in the water column a couple of times, showing off!"donkey206 wrote:Sunday 11-6-11 Alki Cove 2 viz was about 20+ feet. Saw 4 GPO's and 1 came out to say hi.
Re: Viz Reports Thread
Viz at 3T was at least 30' at depth- call it 40-50' and down- really good.

Camp Coogan near Sitka I could see the boat on the surface from 55fsw.

Re: Viz Reports Thread
Pretty decent viz at Redondo tonight. 10-15 which was much better than I thought given the breaking surf there yesterday!
