Off the Chain!!! Flaaaaaaaat! Did some Deco yesterday morning, 150' :25. Vis was about 40-50'. Sun broke out about halfway through the dive and lit everything up nice. No curent, no surge. Wish they were all like that.

Had some good dives today at Lobos. Topside conditions were calm and flat.
Visibility in the cove was the typical 10-15 foot and stirred up. Along the sand channel and cannery point wall it opened up though with 30-40 foot vis. The "Three Sisters" and "The Road" were even better and the visibility at "Twin Peaks" and "The Great Pinnacle" was 60-80 feet. Saw a juvenille wolf eel sitting on a ledge at 120 on the north east corner of the GP.
On the second dive, we stayed along middle reef. At one point a seal swam up and started poking his head in a hole less then 5 feet away from us. After he was done looking for food he got face to face with me and nudged my mask. Unfortunately I had to stop holding my breath and the bubbles scared him away.
Unfortunately I forgot to charge my camera last night and the battery was dead. No video to share.
Here's some video I took last week on pretty much the same dive, although the light conditions were different. This one was really cool cause we saw a ratfish. Editing curtesy of David Henze.
