Blue Heron Bridge Trolls

[mntlblok]

since weather is getting colder -- 5mm or 7mm for a new winter wetsuit? just have a 3mm right now. Doctor's appt is tomorrow to figure out the chest issues- got my fingers crossed this will clear up soon -- i'm in saltwater withdrawal right now i've only done the bridge 1x... and that was the west side... so need to get back up there and i want to be well enough cause there's a trip to the Spiegel planned in a few weeks which i have yet to go to yet either! good news at least is have both tanks ready to go -- but i think i want to have them reanalyzed but don't have my own analyzer yet. i'm not sure if one of them as 25 or 28 in it

I'd err on the thicker, warmer side - especially if yer gonna be diving the bridge. The longer bottom times can be a big factor in getting cold.

How have the conditions been lately with the high winds and baby cold front?

It was great today. 40 foot viz about 81 degrees. Few jellies. I was comfy in lavacore top and swim trunks.
