Went out yesterday on a sunny crisp day for a great couple dives at the Iron Mines site. Diligent One came alongside and Andi, Ben, Gary,Bill, Susie, Helen and Anjie all hung out or dove. there were a couple stellar Sea lions hanging around on the second dive along with the largest ever puget sound king crab we have seen. Ben may have got some good video of the sea lions while Bill had his face to the wall with the macro lens. Looks like the eyes have it on this day. Vis was great at 100ft plus.
I hope 2011 is a great year for everybody diving. Please feel free to post a comment when you are here.
Hope you like the photo's!

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.
