Don't know how the shore diving was today... but man; I was surprised outside the harbor.
Alarm went off this morning, 4:30am. What the hell am I doing getting up this morning just for another Poling dive. Boy was I in for a surprise. The only time I've seen vis better than this was during my AOW class. Dropping down you could see the wreck from the moring chain ball... a good 40'. Swimming along the deck near the break and you could see the crabs in the sand below. You could make a 50 foot sweep around the wreck looking for dropped goodies.
And there was the huge lumpfish, just chillin' out near the catwalk.
I spent week before last in North Carolina, with 60-100 ft vis; but there's just something special about dropping in on your home wrecks where the vis has numbers that sound like snowfall predictions; and finding out you can see the catwalk from the moring line, or that you can see across the whole beam of the ship.
Truely remarkable.
