skeg recovered from the reef. Its amazing how many skegs I find where the screw was not attached to the back plate correctly. Bummer dude. Anyhow, I pulled a bonehead maneuver and threw my surf suit in the car instead of my dive suit. To much mercury I guess. The water looked nice so I reduced weight and dove for a few hours in my 3/2 Body Glove. Just like the good old days. Still some long period swell with some set waves about every 20 minutes pushing through. I thought conditions were nice. 10-12 feet vis. Not much bait in the water and no real game fish. I passed on a few of 22-24 inch halibut hoping for something bigger. Saw a 7lb opaleye but I let it go. Was not sure what the pay out was on it or if I was even in the money. Lots of dead pelicans and cormorants on the beach. Maybe from the weather? Very nice dive but uneventful. Maybe things will liven up a bit in a month or so. The kelp beds look real nice from the top of the cliff.
Malibu dive and big white…..

Cool report and pics.
Is the skeg part of a surfboard? Do you collect them to clean the reef?

Surfboard or SUP. Yeah. We pull a lot of stuff out of the water. Hoop nets are the big eyesore these days. We have had an explosion in that method of lobster fishing. They end up getting hung up on reef or some how lost on the bottom.
This is kind of how I roll.
