bhapps24,
Sorry I didn't catch your post in time. My buddy and I went out yesterday (Sat) to Lanes Cove. When he called me at 6:30 AM it was pouring rain here. I said "what the hell, lets go for it anyway". It rained all the way up to Cape Ann but just when we got there it stopped and dried up. Turned out to be a real nice day too.
There were no other divers around, I guess due to the weather? We did three tanks. And we hit the mother-load of lobsters on dive two, including two lobzillas that just squeeked by on the large size. Mine weighed in at 3.75 pounds and 'Buddy Bills' was even a bit bigger. We also pulled out 6 other more normal size bugs as well.

Maybe next time we can hook up.......Al
 
Thanks. I did manage to get two dives in on sat. When I woke up sat morning it was raining here too. So without a buddy lined up I loaded the car with my gear and decided to go to cape ann. When I got there the plan was to go to CAD and see if anyone would mind a tagalong. It worked out well because every sat and sun they offer a 10:00am meet for people looking for buddys. Three other people showed up and we were off to pebble beach. My first time there. 1st dive I did with derek from shrewsbury, We used his flag and he navigated the dive. We started at the first reef and went right. we saw a nice big strange looking fish really fat with spikey fins well comoflaged. Got one bug (1st for the year do to lack off diving) Got pinched by another bug but wound up to short and let him go. I also got fooled by a mirage. The seaweed was around a rock and moved syncronized back and forth with the surge making it look like the rock was being moved. When I pointed it out to derek he moved the weeds to look and I realized I got fooled haha.:D (gotta laugh at yourself) Then we headed back in to the beach underwater. Derek was a great buddy.
2nd dive derek had to go because something popped up so I joined bruce and dennis on their second dive. They were bug hunting also.On the swim out for the second dive my legs started to cramp right away. I was going to head back in but Bruce and Dennis gave me encouragement to work them out. It worked woowho!! That dive I only caught one more good bug but gave it to dennis underwater so everyone would go home with something. It turned out to be a great day. vis 20' water about 55f depth 35'.
