I give many of the small ones to kids on the beach, and when we return home I wrap some of them and give them to people for necklaces. The megs are untouchable! My wife and son and daughter all have found their own megs, we sometimes spot one at the same time and an underwater free-for-all ensues......

:D If anyone is going tonight after work ~5:30pm , I will be at Sharkeys Pier. It appears high tide will be around 5:00pm and that will give us about 2 hours of light as sunset at 7:20. I dove their last sunday and had to go about 50 yards past end of pier. The slime column in the water appears to be pieces of dead soft coral and various other decaying matter. I did however see hundreds of tiny (1/4") juvenile fish and some of the pillar corals looked pretty healthy, hopefully the soft corals will come back in the next 6 months . I will post conditions after I dive tonight. Thanks

I'm curious how it was this afternoon. I got to Alhambra at 8:15 this morning and the wind and the waves were kicking up pretty good. Wind from the NW approx. 10k, waves 1 to 2 ft. Went South to Caspersen and it was a little better. I like the reef at Caspersen, even if the toothing (teething?) is almost non existant. Vis was 5 to 6, not too bad. Water seemed cooler, but still reading 87. I was a bit chilled after 90 min. bottom time; gonna have to break out the core warmer soon.
 
Is there any red tide present?

I haven't had a chance to walk to the beach this morning, but last night in my front yard it smelled like a sperm whale had beached and perished after a beer and chili bender. Everyone was coughing and I did a sneezing tango dance. My son reported small creature kill on the beach at that time. If I get a moment I'll go and look this morning, unless someone else has actually tasted the water by then.

:rofl3: :rofl3: :rofl3: Dude! Coke alert for this type of description! :rofl3: I'm laughing so hard my eyes are tearing!!:rofl3:
 
Having never smelled a sperm whale that had beached and perished after a beer and chili bender, I'm guessing that's not a good thing :D
 
What a way to state a smell!!!!! I think I will skip the water today. Beer and Chili... Damn that's ruff!!!!
