Re: Gws attack @ sws

That's horrible; I hope he recovers as well as he possibly can. As with the recent oil rig incident, more details would help us all understand the tragedy better.

Re: Lost scuba diver off the rigs in Los Angeles.

Re: Lost scuba diver off the rigs in Los Angeles.

Horrible as this tragedy is, it would be good to have more details about what happened. Understanding accidents helps us all learn to dive more safely. It's odd that the lost diver had an...

On Wednesday it was murky in the shallows and clearer (5-10 feet) at depth, past 20 feet or so.

I was north of Dume two days ago. The vis near the shore was not good, but at depth in the kelp it opened up to 15-20 feet.

Just back from south of Dume. Vis was 5-10 feet, little surf but wind waves started picking up as we were leaving. No worthwhile fish seen.

Re: Malibu Conditions Permathread

Just got back from topanga. Got one bug but the vis was atrocious, often down to zero. Try further west, hopefully it'll be better.

Just got out from west of dume; vis was 5-10 feet, strong surge.
All the lobsters I saw or caught were short. Some decent fish (mostly calico and other bass), but nothing special. From the road...

Just got back from deer creek. 5-10 foot visibility, quite murky, strong surge. Saw no fish worth taking, only short lobsters, but did grab some urchin.

Re: Malibu Conditions Permathread

I just got back from near county line. The vis was 5-10 feet but it started to get better further out. Not as nice as it looks from PCH.
