As Phil described in his report, surface water off Redondo last weekend was tantalizingly blue, with suspended particles of marine snow.
Phil peeled off, hoping to find the wolf eel on Phil's Reef.
One Metridium farcimen was open in the usual cluster.
The crane off Haggarty's had blue surface water with poor vis at depth. Although the moray eel wasn't home, other fish were cooperative subjects.
Margaret Webb would have had fun with these rubberlips.
At the landing craft, 5 GSBs buzzed us repeatedly for nearly an hour. Vis was 10 feet max, so they'd appear and disappear quickly. At the very end of the dive, "Spot" decided to get a closer look.
Some kind of injury or infection on the gill cover?
Minutes later, a sandstorm materialized out of the west, suddenly reducing vis to nearly zero, and forcing us back to the anchor line.
