I like to be camo'd from other divers and cliff dwellers looking down into the kelps. This looks like it would work well.

Great pics.

Good stuff. Looks like you caught a good swell/weather window.

Not sure if this still occurs, but up through the time I left Panama in 1978, a steady off shore breeze in the Dry Season (November/December -April or May) would push out the surface water in the Bay of Panama (Pacific) and allow the very COLD upwelling from the Humbol current move in with very neutrinos water and the fish. Jew Fish by the hundreds, Red Snappers to turn the water Red, and everything else including huge Amberjacks. Oh yes, lots of aggressive sharks too - lost many fish and gear to sharks back then. Best part was the cold water made the spiny lobster lethargic and i could catch many on a single dive, coming up with them under my arms, inside my bathing suit, and one in each hand - no one said being young was smart. Catching a hundred pounds of lobsters was not unusual - we would sell them to the American Legion Resturant on Amador for $.50 a pound and they only bought fresh live ones.
I surfed Santa Catalina on Easter break one year when the cold water moved in. It was a few years after the invasion. I was the only one who packed a wetsuit. I would "rent" it out for a few cold Panamas when I was done surfing.

Welcome mate.

I came across a very similar boat in the kelp last week. Very cool ride. Looked extra stealthy breaking through the fog.

We had a 7ft shark out in the lineup this morning. I followed it for a bit but could not ID the species.:confused2:

Thank you, but how will all the ''new speros'' pile up on that South spot without more roads?;)
Cheers, Don
They will have to get a boat ride with one of the local ELITE divers.

Great bio Don. There should be an epic paddle out for Bob shortly. Will post the date when I here something.

Water temps still on the warm side??

Those are some amazing animals but all these sightings are not convincing me to jump in the water. Are these sightings keeping any of you out of the water in these locations? Am I just being overly cautious by not diving these spots?
The statistics are on your side. More likely to get run over by a googin.

:@:@:@ The record Short Fin from Mass is 1221lb .
Think of how much tuna,yellowtail, and seals that shark must consume to swim each day......but what a beautiful fish to be removed from the sea and not consumed.:(
Cheers, Don
A majestic animal for sure. Kill it eat it.:nono:
