Wow! so far this winter hasn't been to bad has any one been diving around HB how the vis.
 
Humber on X'mas eve was awesome, over 100' of vis. Was told it was great yesterday too (New Year Eve)
 
It was good viz out to the culverts on New Year's Eve, then it went downhill. It was about 40 ft at Cedar Hill, Wiarton, on New Year's day.
 
Hopefully the vis has remained good at Cedar Hill for two dives this Saturday. The nice warm forecasted weather should hopefully make sure it is not a slippery entry as well.
 
Got one dive in at Cedar Hill on Saturday. When I arrive the surface was nice and calm and it was not too windy. There was a heck of a chop on the surface when I finally got in the water. I could not believe how clear the water was.....as in a vis of ~40-50 feet but very little of the usual particulate floating. I wish I had had my camera because it looked great. 39° on my Cobra and 40° on my N2ition.
 
we did the lock 21 as Saturday, great viz, great dive, except for the 2 free flows... It sure is cold right now
