Monday Aug 3rd Porteau Cove. Low tide slack.

Lost of fresh water run off from the Squamish river and spawn/particulate in the water. Mainly affecting shallower water above 40ft. Vis above 40ft depth was 10ft. Vis at the Nakaya in deeper water was about 25ft.

I think it would have been a better dive at high slack.
