Ross and I made an early dive after sunset. Reports of bad visibility were correct. We had 2-4 feet vis down to 80 feet and 6-8 feet between 80 and 100 feet, where we found most of the squid and fresh eggs. Maybe we were too early or maybe the boats overhead were too busy, but we saw several hundred squid, not the thousands we were hoping for. We also got shaken by a VERY loud seal bomb, in spite of Ross' call to the Harbormaster before the dive. I bumped my setting knob on my housing, so none of my U/W shots came out, but Ross will probably post his soon.
Max depth; 102 feet
Temp; 57F
Surf; 3-4 feet, but easy enough to get through
