Well wind was howling in from the east, so all dive plans were postponed in favor of curry and a beer. Did manage a road trip to some new spots to check out their feasibility. Hopefully check those on Wednesday if the viz has improved. Did take a peek at Chesil, was flat calm and probably 2-3m vis. Also swarming with scuba divers so may take a peek tomorrow evening.

Evening dive at HT
Met with Titus to check another spot we hav't dived for ages (Newtons) Headed out and followed shore line. Vis was good at 2-4m in places lots of small edibles about too and a few big boys but forgot my bag! Was out on a mission for Bass anyway. Titus hadn't seen a thing so we were about to turn round and call it a day when I missed a nice 5/6lb bass Cant believe it! Shortly after Titus managed one of his own about 4lb. Started to head back as we were both on a woman imposed...

early evening dive on high tide.
Nipped out to check possible new site but vis was dire there, went back to 'Site C' and tried further round the coast. Vis had dropped to only 1.5m or so. Kept trying and swam a long way, saw plently of flatties but still desperate for my first bass so left them alone. Found a promising bit of ground for later in the year but nothing really worth mentioning yet. Cold and grumpy so headed home!

Early evening last minute dive to 'Site C' at HT slack.
Got a late dive pass from Lucy so shot out to check 'Site C' from shore, headed left in 2-3m vis loads of life about along the wall and a lot of bait fish but nothing big yet, swam to a reef and picked up two really nice flounder over the sand. Saw plenty of crabs and a conger on the reef but no Bass, saw three squid on the way back in managed to take one, not a bad size either. Decided to call it a day after 45min in the water as I'd...

Early evening dive to 'Site B' took the boat which was a mistake as by the time we got sorted the tide was very low easy enough launch but couldn't get to the best spots. Checked 'Site A' on way out to 'B' full of Dog fish but nothing else, moved on to 'B' I dove a little deeper than Titus which turned out to be a mistake, he picked up 3 Bass, all around the 4lb mark! Dammit, I managed a real big Mullet though maybe 7lb Missed a bass myself on way back to the boat and left another two sitting mullet...
