Sorry mate would of done but got to be up mega early in the morning. Let us know how the viz is will be interesting to see how it is.

 

[Ross McFarlane]

Better vis than in the harbour, probably about 2-3m at best.

 

[21raven21]

Happy with that you get anything mate.

 

[Ross McFarlane]

Uh, no haha. Didn't see much living apart from a little crab! Didn't stay in long to be honest though.

 

[21raven21]

Fair enough nice one for getting out tho . Watch out for Mr Porbie .

 

[Ross McFarlane]

I'd probably just die straight out of fright haha there many around here?

 

[21raven21]

I personally haven't had the chance of meeting him ( want to keep it that way ) but I know a few who have. Think it's hot or miss tbh I believe there is only 1 but I have heard there are a few more lol. Nothing to worry about tho mate just stay in close quicker to get out hahaa.

 

[Ross McFarlane]

Particularly scary with bad vis, what about basking sharks?

Where was that? I need to try harder I think!

 

[speerolee]

They where hiding amongst the bloom; I had to work for them. In at 9pm and out at 2am. An epic long distance swim to rugged dangerous water off a remote headland and thus not for the faint hearted. I know only of 2 other spearos that can endure such night dives.

Ah fairplay mate, sounds amazing. Hopefully one day I'll be able to do that haha. Looks like it was worth it!

 

[Westy226]

That would be amazing! I can get to the Poole kinda area easy enough if you want get in sometime Tuesday afternoon/eve?

Ross I've got that hood. Not gonna be able to make it out tonight though. When are you out next?

 

[21raven21]

Good news is that they replaced the blades as they have a year warranty....bad news is the replacement pair snapped within 3 montgs and apparently the 1 year warranty only starts from the time of original purchase and thus they did not replace them nofins4u

But all said....I love tge performance of the blades I have the hard ones. Also be aware that the foot pockets that nofins4u supply ate shite and they split in a month; luckily Joe gave me a set of omer millennium pockets

I have got my old Cressi pockets mate that I know will fit as I have been looking at them tonight already. But cheers for the heads up. I love them they look amazing. Just want to get out and use them but this weather is starting to piss me off. Seriously debating listening to the misses and moving to Australia for a year. . And I never listen to her haha.

Sat up the heights hotel on Portland. If anyone is planning a dive this weekend I wouldn't bother.
Chesil. Right off
Harbour small breeze but was brown yesterday. Can't imagine Weymouth Bay Area will be any good either weather looks horrid this weekend too. Gutted.

Swanage is off as well. It was an eye bleeding 0.5-1m vis. Don't let the webcam fool you. On the other hand came away with a nice 1and a half pound lobby.
