Have not been on here in a while so here is my report.

Decided to give it one last shot before the season ends so packed up with wife, the dog Wildhorse and Duy Tran. Took the day off and dove Friday morning and bottom temp was in the low 50 high 40's so it was damn cold. Cold enough to call it a short dive. Anyhow, not wanting to deal with that again especially in the evening we decided to do it the old fashioned way, drop some hoops. Since I gave all my hoops away to Fishermanfromlongbeach, we used Duy's.

Long story short, limits for three after 4 sets. Brought up a couple sandies, a sculpin and some starfish. Kept only bugs. Filled out our bug cards and called it a night.

Hoops - Conincal
Bait - Macks
Surface Water Temp - 57
Winds - almost none
Depth - 40 feet
Tide Change - Fast incoming
Seals - None
Moon - None
Catch - Bugs, swell shark, starfish, sculpin, two sandies and a grip of crab.

Pulled back in the slip at 10pm. Until next year!

Some pics were taken with Duy's camera until he ran out of batteries and used my phone.

Few pictures to share from Friday's afternoon dive. Dove with Fkricter and work buddy. Shot a couple fish but no legal bugs to be had.

LOL sorry my young Padowan, I meant it's not a high dollar digital that most of the divers use that range anywhere from $1K to $10K that is the size of Texas. I use this camera any chance I get. My old Sony was a cheap little camera too and it cost about $600 with housing. Don't be bummed, I appreciate it...

Thanks for all the reports and pics over the season,
I for one appreciated them, I know how long it takes to do a report with pics. Maybe I'll see you out there next year.
You will post some fishing reports also, right!?
