I was out at Windy Point yesterday. The conditions were about like they have been. 63 deg on top, thermocline at about 32' temp below around 57 deg. Vis was spotty. Some places 10 to 15 with foggy areas here and there. Average was closer to 8 or 10ft. That was on saturday before easter, so there wasn't a lot of divers this weekend to stir up the silt. Went down to 90 ft and it looks like the vis is starting to clear a little in the deeper water, I could actualy see my hand in front of my face!
Have fun next weekend!

touch-contact drills, dropping below 100' will be perfect.
WP was a freaking zoo today, all the hardcore bbq clans were out in full force...overflow parking at 10:15 am. We moved to Barstow's where the crowds were sparser...upper 30' had a lot of particulate, 55-75 was fair, below 95-ish was soup.
My Vyper showed 55F at depth.

Has anyone dipped into the 130 to 150 range or it just gets to nothing at around 100 so you say screw it?
Rand and I are hitting the dam this weekend and gonna stick our toe in the deep and see what its looking like down there, probably muck but gonna look anyway, anyone up for some camping?

max depth I attn, how about a vis report instead? :14:
FIXXERVI6:
Both will do!
I was sure wishing for that bigger tank today Gregg. I was using an LP95. It would have given me a lot more time in the canyon. You doubles guys would love it.

Pretty much just say screw it. The muck at 100 feet shows no indication of clearing up deeper.Need to wait a couple of months.
The most amusing part of Sundays dive was being dive bombed by an open water class while we were playing around laying a line.Half a dozen vertical whirling windmills,one of whose fin strap had a magnetic attraction to our line.
