So today I played hooky from Lovers Key and Reefguy (Jeff) being on vacation made it easy to come up with a game plan to go diving! We went to Venice Beach today and worked on a new toothing technique. It worked. I found a nice 3.1" meg in near pristine shape, Jeff found a 2" meg in 80-85% shape and we found a neat bone yard in about 20-22 feet of water. There was a horrid long shore current (northward) that kept us working like crazy to stay still in a spot to search, and making things more interesting was the NE wind that was dragging Jeff slightly sideways to boot. We basically skipped over the smaller teeth on the way out opting to look on the return but with the current we came in much farther north than the small toothy areas and had a bit of a walk back to the Alhambra are. Beware the tiny jellies, the stung around my cheeks some (face yawl, not the other ones).
