Looks like it was down there at least a week or two, maybe longer. Post a description if you know it.

It was last Friday (5/29), and it was just OK, about 30'

30'? Sounds pretty good. On memorial day I had 5'-15' @ lovers. I'll try the carmel river beach next time. See any nice fish?

It wasn't a very productive dive. It was low tide, and we had a "returning-after-25-years" diver with us who was suckin air like a big dog. So, we didn't get far enough out to see much of anything. I only took a couple pics, and the surge at 25' made it impossible to focus. Maybe next time.

What was the bottom-time/depth? I'm always curious about different people's definitions of "air hog".

300 psi? cutting it close to a visual inspection eh? heh heh

Also, I'm looking for dive buddies to go shoot some fish or photos with. I lived in Santa Cruz for 5 years (over the hill now) during college. Recently got my Divemaster cert and I've dove Monterey a bunch of times, but not so much from shore. Looking to try some cool new shore spots. Message me if you're up for it. I'm free on Sundays.

this dive was on a steel 80, I believe (same for me)
