Sund Rock - 5/11/12 - A New Adventure
Sorry for the late trip report, but I had a pretty busy weekend. Penders, Dane, and I wanted to go on a little adventure Friday night. Our goal was to avoid currents and hit a site that we normally do not dive. The choice was Sound Rock. All three of us had been there on several occasions. However, ...

Awesome pics Jesse! I love the two lumpies "looking" at each other! Thanks Tom, the Lumpies looking at one another is priceless. Wonder what they are saying. Baby brother "What is that loud, goofy, awkward thing making those big flashes?" Big brother "Dad told me that was a...

Re: TTN, Thursday 5-4-2012!
Good dives. Keith is right, we saw at least 25-30 baby lumpies at the end of our 2nd dive. They are everywhere. It seems like there is a ton of baby critters out right now. I would love to see a Jan K. write-up on the Baby PSL's.
Jan, do you take requests?
Here are a few shots.

Nice shots Eric! Looks like you found a Puget sound crab (or 2). Is that the same camera setup you dove with at redondo?

getting measured for dry suit
You probably know this, but Mr. Rawlings (on the board) sells Weezles. He can guide you on the proper one and probably even discuss sizing with a dry suit.
I have been wanting to get one but have not been able to pull the trigger. Maybe when I see you with one I may have to get one

Got called an idiot for selling my pony!
I think it is BS when people judge others on diving preferences. People configure gear for so many reasons. In Fiji, there was a diver with a spare air. Someone poked fun of him. He said he had a terrible experience, can't remember the specifics but it shut that guy up right away. In fact, he was re...

Re: DIW and Fox Island EW
Here you go Keith :-) Sorry for the delay. I walked across the Narrows and had a paper due for class. Long day.
BTW - The large GPO was the first one I have ever seen in the open. Penders got some video, just got to get him to post it...

Well, Fox Island was fantastic too. We hit a little current but not much. Viz about 15-20'. Tons of nudi's and a sweet, yellow lumpie. And a huge bald eagle fly right over head on the entry.
We had both dive sites to ourselves, gear rinsed, and home by noon? Can't beat that.
Pics will follow

Holy smokes! Penders and I left at 4 am to hit DIW. We dropped in at 5:19 and hit the exchange perfectly (thanks to Mike's planning). Heading north and turned back as the sun came up and lit the top of the wall green. Viz was a solid 25'. Saw huge GPO in the open another huge GPO in a den, red octo,...

I will also bring my tanks even if not diving. :pirate: Hope you feel better Jeff! We can do Lumpia another ...
