Re: Handheld 10W HID
Yeah they are batterie hogs. When I had mine it was a great light but if I used it on a dive , I usually had to reload fresh batteries if I wanted to count on it the next dive. Makes one hell of a backup light though !!

Diamond Knot 10-12
Dove the Diamond Knot today with my buddy Scott. Before diving we were treated to several Dahls porposises cruising by along with salmon jumping around the boat. While we had a little more current than we had hoped for but the vis more than made up for the current. We had an easy 50 feet of visibili...

Re: Neah Bay on a bootstring
If you are going to Neah Bay Snow Creek looked closed for the season when I drove by and a lot of the businesses in Neah Bay have closed for the season. Seiku was empty on Friday after salmon fishing closed, so it should now be off season room pricing. When the fishing closes up there just about eve...

Re: New action on Neah Bay dive area?
I went to the commission meeting on Thursday and noted that attendance was quite small. It was pointed out that the 120ft depth restriction and reduced catch limit was only enacted last year. WDFW has not had enough time to evaluate any changes good or bad and apparently have only limited data on ro...

Re: New action on Neah Bay dive area?
This closure was proposed last year with relatively short notice. This is everyone's opportunity to go to a meeting and voice you concerns. From my experience the overall fish populations appear to be strong . I would be interested in the data used and the methods used. With all areas deeper than 20...
