This place will do dive trips but they scuba but if you want to free dive they wouldn't care and they love to kill fish. They go out with the owner of USIA sometimes so you can hit him up for a dry suite ha ha. When are you thinking on going? The waves where around 30 ft two weeks ago they need to wait for the waves to come down to around 10 ft before they will go out. Nothing like seeing nothing but water around you when your out in the Ocean. also the vis might only be around 5 ft as well and the reef is at around 60ft at the top and drops off to 130 ft if you can get two around 80ft the vis can open up to around 60 ft and you will see a ton of fish. I would scuba there the water is 48 at the top and around 42 on the bottom. You will see wolf eels in holes and the heads are around the size of a mellon.

If you go in the summer time when the surf is smaller you can free dive Depoe Bay that place is killer you have to jump off some rocks so not to many people want to deal with it but you can get big ling and seabass all over the place. Oregon is a hard trip to plan it can be anything and for the most part it sucks but you can find some days where it's unreal.

Here is the guy from USIA he is doing his own trips now I dove with them17 years ago they went on the trip on top. See if you can get on the next trip and if shooting a shark as still legal they would let you do that as well. And if you do shoot one I won't tell. I hate sharks. :thumps:

Thanks for the info and the link to the web site. They look pretty good. I don't plan on trying to get on a charter until summer, I just want to get all of my ducks in a row now.
