It was great to see Ron back!

Viz was maybe 10-15, but _at the same time_ the water was so blurry that at times I could barely read the PPo2 on my backlit wrist gauge! BTW: There was bioluminescence in the water too!

[YellowEye]

Nice job on the photos Gdog, I especially like the octo!

[Gdog]

Thanks Eric, its my favorite too. I really like how the hooded nudi turned out on your photos. Was really a good dive.

Redondo, August 7th, very low tide, 2 to 5 ft, and that is generous.

It looked pretty horrible when I walked out on the dock, Tom..... I was hoping that it would open up at depth for you...

Thanks Again Richard for helping me with the dive planning!

Viz in Edmonds last night was very poor in the shallows. Coll and I only dove to about 21 feet and we called the dive at about 30 mins since it was so bad. Our dive buddies said in the deeper areas it was a bit better but still pretty low viz. I am hoping it clears up as we are diving there tomorrow night again and I hope for some more Bio. We got out of the water too early to see it last night.

[DecidedlyOdd]

8/15 @ Mukilteo Lighthouse: Probably only 3ft on the surface, opening up pretty decently to about 20ft below about 50fsw
8/16 @ Day Island Wall: 10-15ft in the shallows, opening up to more like 20ft along the wall

Saltwater State Park today -- Viz ranged between good and a whole lot better than that. I think there were areas where we had 30 feet or better. Lots of rockfish and ratfish, and no current at all at depth on a strong flood. Surface current blowing south, and the top 8 or 9 feet of water was almost ridiculously warm!
