That is a bad news! I thought that these nice days would help the vis! But even from the Dorset guys the reports are bad! Anyway l will bring climbing gears just in case!

Had my first dive of the year Sunday and managed 4 decent sized mullet in vis that was a varied 1-3 metres, today I thought I'd try a different mark only to find it had been completely transformed by the storms, the vis was a murky 4 metres with only a few wrasse and a shoal of sandeels, after a bit of searching I managed to find where all the sand had been shifted and bagged 4 flounders.
I think its going to take a few more weeks before all this silt is washed out.

Looks like the beuchat stringer or very similar. I'm using the apnea version, I thought a bit more sturdy. But be careful at night as easy to puncture your float - dooh
 
Cheers Broseidon, I brought the stringer from a sports shop in Gran Canaria about 7 years ago, not too sure who made it or even if they are still available but Anthony at spearfishingstore.co.uk sells a similar one that Beuchat makes if that helps.

I've dived 3 marks this year and I recon about 40% of the weed has gone at each one. The sea is a very different place this year.
