Nice longsnout Jet. Was this close to where we saw "Orangey" last week? And if so who was on zipper duty?
I'm planning on visiting Babby-Daddy's site and look for that decorator crab too. I'm thinking about doing the West side today too. If you were there it could be West Side Story cause I might see the sharks and the jets.
:rofl4:​

Haha. I had the rest of the J's to help me with my zipper. And I discovered post-dive that Bilsant was also there.

Sorry I can't get up again this week ... Santa gave me a thermos for Christmas so now I am serving hot herbal tea upon egress. You will need it this afternoon. Have fun and stay warm.
 
Potential new Troll here. I am planning my first BHB dive coming up on Monday the 9th and wanted to know if the winds are bad on the coast with rough seas does it effect the bridge? Also, for my first time doing the bridge and I will only be doing one tank(HP120):D which side of the bridge is the must see side? If there will be any local divers there on Monday who would love to show the lay of the land, er water, it would be appreciated. I plan on getting alot of pics on this dive.
 
Hermit crab fight.

Biggest jawfish I've ever seen at the bridge.

I had the pleasure of bringing a new troll into the fold. I spent a delightful 104 minute dive with Beiji today and in my capacity as a bridge orge welcome this new troll. Our viz wasn't too good...20 feet at the best of times and my computer showed 70 as low temp. The wind was cutting after the dive. We never saw baby daddy or any seahorses. We did see lots of yellowline arrow crabs, giant hermits and batfish.I offically declare the water is now no longer cool but cold!

Jim took me on a wonderful tour of the Bridge! He felt bad that we didn't see any seahorses, but I was ecstatic when I found a big flounder! And the batfish was a first for me. Thanks, Jim!
