Garibaldi/Cape Lookout Sunday?

A place for Oregonians to plan a car-pooling road trip, find a nearby diveable mudhole, and meet new local dive buddies.

Stan,

If it wasn't Mother's Day I would be all over it. As it is I am meeting up with the family, so won't be able to make it out. Hope you have some good dives.

Lets hear how it was :).

After the amazing conditions we had on Saturday I'm looking forward to finding out how it was for you guys. I have to admit when I was eating Sunday brunch with the family I was thinking a bit about being out on the ocean :P

Hey Aaron, we had a good day, viz was between 5' in the krill and 15'-20' out of it. Weather was great in the morning and then it clouded up and got a lil windy/bumpy for the ride home. Made first dive along the wall and it was not to bad, made the second dive about 150' South of the wall and it was a great dive. lots more life, saw a 18" octo hiding in a crack, lots of kelp greenling, lingcod, black rockfish. When out from the wall saw hundreds if not thousands of small (less then 1") crabs just all over the bottom, in some spots they just covered the ground . It was def. a good day on the coast.
