Baby Warbonnets and Ed's Fault

Post by KeithBoll »

Went with Dale back to Ed's Fault on Discovery Bay yesterday! We missed the rain that most of our area had - overall a great day of diving! Viz on the top 15 feet was cloudy, but then opened up to about 20 feet. Saw over a dozen GPOs at this site - I don't know of another dive site right now with this many GPO occupied apartments! At one place on the reef - two dens were just six feet away from each other. Dale spotted a baby warbonnet in a small hole - and later, Dale found three more. Also found a small GPO out in the open. Switched to wide angle for the second dive - I may try to post some video of the little guy later today. Lots of life to enjoy on this reef.
