Great day for diving! Wolf eel, octopus...great!

Well, I was going to say at least 22.375 feet, but I guess I can scale it down to "20"

Nice to see Dusty2 & his Dad, Barbara, and of course Bnboly. One point of disagreement, sort of... viz was 30'!

Gorgeous day today...

Just wanted to say thanks to Tom, bnboly. and Babs for the excuse to dive TTN again. A great day, good viz, and new friends. What more could you ask for.

Viz at Redondo this morning was 15fsw. We ran into that annoying downwelling again about half way into the dive and someone stole my Rubbermaid tub but still a decent dive.

Ron -

Where was the rubbermaid when it got stolen? That just stinks. I leave mine out all the time right behind my truck. Guess I have been lucky.

Hope there wasn't anything in it.

I think the nudi in the first picture is a Dubious Dorid. I don't have my stuff with me right now, but, I think that is what it is. They show up in bundles. I am sure that Dusty or Jan will correct me if I am wrong.

I left the tub in between my car and another guys truck. I had the lid shoved underneath the back of my car. The worst part is we were parked on the street, right in front of the little kitchen area that Salty's uses.

Ron, I think that your slug in first photo is Spotted Aglajid (Aglaja ocelligera).

Thanks, Jan! I'd never seen one before today.

Titlow, 11/28/08, 10-15 ft

Edmonds; at least 30 feet but a little hazy. 11/28/08 just after noon.

Three Tree North about 30 feet today (Black Friday - went diving to avoid shoppers!), Redondo this evening about the same. Great viz at both places.

Duh. That is what I get for trying to answer in the state of mind that I was in. I knew that. Thanks Jan.

Looks more like a powder shugared Tootsie roll! mmmmmmmm!

I''ve seen those in large numbers too. And no, I have not tried to eat one....yet.

Sent a PM with this info "Spotted Aglajid (Aglaja ocelligera)", however, I call them "Cigar Butt Nudi's"...
I usually see them all over at 3 tree and KVI...
Can't wait to go diving tomorrow...

yesterday, 11/29:

les davis - 10'

DIW - 15-20'

This morning, 12-1 @ 3TN viz was 20-25 fsw at depth.

Ron, very nice, especially the Dirona with the shrimp..

Thanks, Jan! That one was a surprise when I saw it on my monitor. I didn't notice the shrimp when I was composing the shot.

Beautiful morning - Sun, nice cloud formations, great 71 & 60 minute dives! I must disagree with Ron on one thing, however, first dive viz was 30' at depth. Second dive was a bit less, 20-25. Great day, great company, great dives!

It's my conservative nature, Tom......

Ah, me too... except that good viz is so rare you have to get credit for every foot!

Les Davis was a crappy 10'. Owen beach was a little better at about 15'.
