Beautiful day of course . . .
Entered at 9:40AM. Curly 2-footers, mainly, but with lulls so you could get in/out without getting smacked. 56º water temp, vis around 15 feet out to the canyon shoulder, a little bit less (probably 10-15') in the canyon. No noticeable thermocline (and I was diving in my 5mm). Minimal surge in shallows, nothing at depth (60-70').
LOTS of CA Lizardfish. Couple of octos, nice long Pipefish, Sheep crabs, and Yellow Box Crabs (or perhaps Slenders - not sure), Sarcastic Fringeheads, many flatfish, etc., etc.
Nice dive and Brett Kotheimer (who was my buddy) notched his 100th dive!!!
