After work and school dive with Jo and the Son.
Just managed to get out on the outgoing tide touched the bottom slightly.
Ran over some big bait balls and marked some big fish around them, droped the longline near there.
Pulled up at spot x .3 and got in the water.
The viz was great again but she was a little sloppy and I was just too damn hot I couldn't get comfortable couldn't hold my breath my balls were being squashed by the wetsuit and it was hot did I mention it was hot water temp was 21.5.
I I cracked the shits with it and went back to the boat ,I took off the top half of my wetsuit and a couple of weights off my belt and had another go....better now I wasn't being basted in my own sweat but I would float head down when trying to breath up so using energy to keep head at snorkel depth and when I dived down and up the bib top of the bottom half of wet suit would billow out like a sea anchor.
Joe was having a bit of a mare also and grabbed a couple of my weights when I got out .
The Son was actually going really well....I dunno how but then he had just biked home from school, uphill the whole way wearing a black puffer jacket in near 30 degrees!
Joe snagged some keepers and the longline produced a couple of panni snap and a nice Trev.
Good to get out even if my diving was a bit of a struggle.
