Back to Deadman Bay..

A little warm-up dive this morning for the main event this evening, the first Club charter of the 2007 season. Theresa and I enjoyed the Southern wreck in Deadman Bay shortly after 9am, spending some 38 minutes taking in its features. The only significant sighting was of a fairly large Smallmouth Bass, which seemed very interested in us, making a close approach; its obviously diseased state could explain this unusual behaviour.

The water was pleasantly warm (comparatively) at 52F (11C). But visibility, partly due to the brisk Sou'wester, partly to floating algae, was only fair - at about 35 feet.
