So I headed to Packery with expected results.....5" visibility. So I hop back in the car at about 9 and get to the Port A jetties at about 9:45 after a chat with a guy driving a black crown vic with some funny lights on top. Visibilty after a low tide about 5'. So I decide to hop in. I am hitting up a pier off of the jetty, hit the smaller of the spade's, reload and hit the larger spade fish. At this time I look up to see Ascuba Venture hauling all thier gear and class down my way. So I head to the end of the pier. I dive down a few times saw some small snapper and some small spades, then surface to find a 300' tanker hauling but into the channel....HOLD ON......I manage to get one hand on the pilings and hung out on the backside of the piling while the ship passed. (now I remember why I tried packery first!) It's not bad at all if your at the end of the jetty, but get in the channel and WHOA...it's like diving in a river. Well after the boat passed the vis dropped to about 3 or 4' and with new divers getting their certification....I thought I'd rather not be slinging steel with a bunch of people swiming down around the bottom. So I load up and head home...clean the fish and put some marinaide on them. Firing up the grill for lunch in about 5.4.3.2.1.......
