Oh right roflroflroflroflrofl I was up bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning scoping out new spots, no hangover for me 
Water looked all right from top of the cliff but closer up it had that lentil soup look to it :head

Might try tomorrow or Monday. The wind is blowing all over the place, so I think it will be pot luck. If the viz is crap, then there are always scallops to find
Ive eaten too many scallops , had my full of lobbies and crabs aswell.
iv'e got the taste for a sand kite now , maybe a plump flounder or a ray. theres just bugger all viz to have a crack at them :head:head
Might have to take the kayak out for a quick paddle tomorrow and see whats about. the wind is supposed to be calm and small swell should make for a nice day.
Happy New Year to the Devon crew!
Let us know when the vis exceeds 1m and the water gets above 8 degrees
Heres a pic of the spot I dived on the 2nd. Viz wasnt too bad around 3 meters but a bit cloudy. D3 said it was 10c. only saw a few sand eels the whole time but always good to get wet.
I reckon late evening dives is the way forward at the moment. Was out early this morning trying to get in around the bay but theres no viz at all.
Been hearing of good flounder coming out the exe recently. One of the local anglers had a 3lber which is a beast up this way

Quite agree. It's been a long time out the water for me with a combination of weather, work, family and a cold conspiring to keep me dry. But it's a new year and Santa brought me a divehunter so things are going to get better...
Great bit of kit the Divehunter. the gun straps are a bit weak but otherwise very well made. I store a water bottle down the side of the tubes as well as in the bottle holder. Well worth making a carry strap as it can be a bit of a pain carrying it and all your gear back to the car
Plenty of room on top for the silvers aswell

happy and safe hunting for the devon crew 2011

Lol enough said!
You are to be commended for your winter efforts. My leaky suit forced me to pack in in November! Rep sent
