Octopus Hole 11-22-08 (with video)

[mz53480]

Great day at Hoods Canal.
Nice 2-tank dive, close to an hour each on 120's.

Lots of octos, even a wolfeel and a dead seal. Vis was decent too.
saw some sort of 1/2 bright fluorescent-orange, 1/2 dead looking coral-like feature...
Gorgeous weather!

Anyone been out at Sund Rock?

Not sure about how long the Lion has been there....this was only my 2nd dive at the site. I'll ask around & try to find out.
Using a Sony DCR-trv220 camera with a FL filter. The housing is very old, but seems to work. I can't remember the brand name of the housing, but it's got a bubble lens on the front, with no controls (i.e. you turn the camera on and seal it in and it runs constantly until the battery or tape runs out). Only good for about 1 dive, but fun to use! Thanks!
