Re: T-Handle for BlackTip DPV?
I know a local person (on Bainbridge Island) who has 3D printed T handles for the Blacktips and I've used them both single and T grip and definitely will say I prefer having the option with the T grip. If I remember correctly, it is a non-destructive modification so if you end up not liking it, you ...

Re: A couple tiny fish IDs please
Thanks! I miss all of you folks too! There is a good possibility I'll be back for another winter of diving in the PNW, but no definite plans made yet.

Re: How do octopuses know what color to change to?
Definitely an intriguing topic.
But at the same time, I was a little disappointed that there wasn't a dad joke punch line after opened this thread.

It will be a bit more expensive than a group cla...

Confident the first one is a snailfish, but if anyone can ID it further than that, I'd appreciate it...
The next one might just be too young to ID, but I figured I'd ask...

Re: Whidbey Island Critters
I saw a handful of stars all wrapped up around what looked to be a dead rockfish the other day... perhaps they are all trying to grab the last few bites of some meal and none of them are willing to give up their hold on it?

Re: Thursday Night 3/23
I hit Cove 2 again yesterday and there was again plenty to see. I'd be ok with hitting it again - I agree the Redondo forecast looks less than ideal.

Re: Thursday night diving 3/2
Works for me - I did a dive at Cove 1 this afternoon around 4PM - we found two Stubbies but I'm not sure if we were deep enough or whether they were still hiding because it was still plenty bright. At the same time some other folks were diving Cove 2 and they said it was the most devoid of life they...

Re: Thursday Night Diving -- 2/2
Another great Redondo dive. Not sure if that current right at the end was the river or not, but still a great dive with fantastic vis!

Re: Thursday Night Diving -- 2/2
Anyone potentially interested in an earlier second dive? I figure I should be able to be over to the Seattle side (coming from Port Orchard) by 2-230ish.

Re: Free Ikelite FL Dome and Extension
Definitely! I just got in town and have plans to head up to the San Juans for a while, and then who knows. I have no specific plans for how long I'll be in the area, but it will be at least until some time in January, so plenty of time to make sure I join you guys for a dive or three.

Free Ikelite FL Dome and Extension
A friend gave me an Ikelite 8" dome and 5510.28 FL extension in hopes that I could make use of it, but it would require me to make more of an investment into my current housing setup than I feel like doing at this time.... so instead of it sitting and collecting dust, if anyone can make use of ...

Re: ThThTh 11/18
I think I'm out too. I called Lighthouse Dive Center and it sounds like they might let me swap out my drysuit for a larger size that might be a bit more comfortable, so I am going to run up to Lynnwood and talk with them tonight. Might also see if I can find a place to go get my vax booster.

Re: ThThTh 11/18
Is it even going to be diveable tonight at that time? Looking at the tide chart, it looks like we'll be in the middle of a 11+ foot exchange. Tonight is a full moon plus lunar eclipse... I'm just trying to learn the dive planning aspect for this area.
