I have a pair Dan can borrow for the race. I use them for halibut diving.

Congrats Miquel. Halibut is 'good eats' almost any way it is prepared.

Big Congrats Stephan..... long time in coming. Look at enough sand and you'll find um...
Fish are tough..... I've taken a lot of halis with well healed spear or gaff tear outs................ and a couple with what were probablay shark bites (too clean for seals). (angel sharks eat halis).
Re current.... Near shore... relatively shallow water.... most common they face in with incoming tide and out with out going tide.... - they really are just moving into the shallow water at with incoming tide to feed...... but they also "fit" themselves into any spot ...
After the 1964 Good Friday earthquake in Alaska and the following tsunami that hit CA..... we had a strong "river like" current running S down the coast......... most of the fish and every halibut I saw that day was facing into the current...... just like trout in a stream..
Re shooting from the nose..... ie head on........... I know there are a lot of posts from guys that prefer this..... I really dont think it matters. Just take the shot that works for the setting.. Im reasonably sure none of the pics in the Good Friday 1964 pic below were shot from the nose!

Cool pic Mike.

Just an update on the bag. I don't think the fabric is UV stable. Its turning reddish like the old Yazbak wetsuits from sun exposure. I also took Don's advice and started packing some plastic liners to keep the bag less skanky.

Are the raffle tickets specific to an item or just pooled together?
