N.W. Visibility Updates

Here we go,
Today, immediately adjacent to Cape Kiwanda, it was a blurry 2-4 ft., emphasis on 2. On the way out it was a thick rust-colored bloom, which actually was not present at the rock, but still awfully dim for kelp diving.
Good luck!

Grays Harbor was about 5' today. Lots of fish but you had to almost land on them. Congratulations to Justin (Timmy1288) who got his first Lingcod today. First Ling was almost 20 pounds!

20 pounds! That's a pig! Good for him! That's huge for a first ling. Hope you got some photos.

Thanks Max, check out my profile picture to see the ling. I was pretty excited when I pulled it up, especially since it was my first one! Searun, thanks for all of your insight throughout our dives together, not to mention letting me bum a gun off of you. Couldn't have done it without your help.
