Diving with the Devilfish. Part #1 Observation Wall

Jealousy prevails as Bill went south yesterday with his camera to dive the Skookumchuck with the Devilfish, Kal, Anne, Rossi and his posse and a few lucky others.  To contact the Devilfish directly look in Helpful Links here and go to Porpoise Bay Charters. Photo opportunities were as  plentiful as the life is abundant in this high flow area. The visibility was great 80 ft plus. Kal timed the entry and exit at the Observation Wall perfectly.  the photos speak for themselves and show what you will see here.
