5/8/2010 - Jelly Roll

Merry and I had hoped to dive the Fog Wreck this morning to document the condition after the Ocean Defenders completed the net removal. The swells were large, close together and wind-blown. The water was a dark green-brown tint. We travelled a long way, so we dropped anyway. I thumbed the dive two feet from the bottom when we still couldn't see. The upper water column was filled with schmutz and jellies. The pictures suck, but Merry's video is pretty good. The purple stripe jellies were at the surface off Redondo Beach.
