Southern California Buddy Diving With The Divevets off the Island Diver<\/p>\n
In With: 2900 psi
\nOut With: 500 psi
\nMax depth: 100 feet
\nWaves: Minor chop, Current going Eastward
\nVisibility: 15 feet +
\nWater Temperature: 56 degrees
\nTotal Bottom Time: 20 minutes
\nNotable Event: I limited for the first time!<\/p>\n
We made it a point not to “move the boat closer.”<\/p>\n
That’s usually a curse that the second dive will yield nothing.<\/p>\n
We were all sitting around and the new-to-diving deckhand asked us, “Why isn’t anyone going back in the water?”<\/p>\n
“We have about an hour to out-gas,” someone responded.<\/p>\n
Too bad there’s a no beer rule between dives.<\/p>\n
I was the first one in on the second dive and headed South West again but didn’t see any bugs for the first ten minutes.<\/p>\n
I then came across a set of pipes and cement boxes at 95 feet that was crammed with lobsters the size of small dogs.<\/p>\n
I grabbed one and bagged it.<\/p>\n
I grabbed for another one and missed – it shot out the other side of the pipe.<\/p>\n
I swam to the other side, high beamed my light just in front of it and grabbed it.<\/p>\n
I could have stuffed my bag here, but I was deeper than I had planned to go and I had caught my day’s lobster limit of seven in a 24 hour period.<\/p>\n
I ascended and did an open water safety stop in probably what was a current that had picked up.<\/p>\n
When I broke surface I was way the hell East of the boat and had to make a 100 yard surface swim back.<\/p>\n
The rest of the divers made it back to the boat; some caught a couple bugs while others got skunked.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I’m glad I brought an extra large bag!<\/p>\n
The beer started to flow freely on the way back and the traditional parking lot party ensued for about an hour.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Do I look macho with all my bugs, or what?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The parking lot party crew.<\/p>\n
Another great and plentiful night of Southern California lobster hunting and SCUBA diving!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
