Depth & Time: 93 feet, 44 minutes - air
Water Temp and Weather: Water 49 degrees. Nice.
Description: Went out with Craig Neill from Aqua Addicts and his new charter operation (604-944-6996 or 604-328-4899) up Indian Arm. A fun trip - the boat is nice, and the food was superb. Dive was neat - millions of red jellyfish though, and the occasional blue one. And perch, and rockfish. Didn't find any octos, but there were tons of seastars and hairy lithode crabs. A nice drift too - gentle.
