Re: Factors of bad visibility

Thats the thing i hate most... when im excited for the day and all is calm.. just to hop in the water and barley be able to see the tip of my spear. Well thats always the case right now.. this season now in the arabian gulf is the worst for visibility and it'll unfortunatly only get good around March or April. Reason is rain wind (shmaal) and Mainly the change in water temp. Since hot water floats up and cold sinks down, the sea is basically being stirred up moving the bed and disturbing it and thats the main factor for the bad vis.

Sometimes it would be real windy outside but the viz is so great.. so u can really rely on that for viz.
Another thing to keep in mind is.. at least its what i was told.. that its best to go out in the middle of an arabic month.. dont ask me why! but its tru and theres always an abundance of fish and viz is usually good.

Please anyone correct me if im wrong.

Hey maybe u should get urself an inflatable boat or a kayak rather than swimming that mile to get to ur spot... ull save urself a lot of energy for better bottom times and u can also store ur stuff inside

Anyways thats my .02 cents

Good Luck!!
