Pantoja, Rolo, and myself with Pantoja's boat (La Santa Fe).
The day started out with flat seas and stayed calm all day. Vis a hazy 25ft. A mild surface current going north with a vicious thermocline at around 45ft and a strong current on the bottom going in a different direction to the surface current. Combined with the bad visibility it was disorienting and difficult to stay on top of bottom structure. We did all reef today from 30 to 60ft, with a brief venture to blue water which produced nothing.
Rolo got an octopus, a big one, the second one I've ever seen in these waters. There were sightings of big muttons but they were spooky as usual, may be an indication of things to come. A pic of a beautiful barracuda that Pantoja shot. I saw the rob allen float go zipping on the surface and knew he had something on. This barracuda was very healthy with nice clearly defined markings and exceptional coloring, truly a beautiful fish.
I also tried my camera underwater for the first time.
