Comments and Feedback
This was the second dive of the day. The visibility began to get much worse on this dive, especially the farther north I went. In fact I was trying to go farther north and begin there and work my wway back, but visibilty became near zero and a bit scary, so I returned to the area near the entry point. Homemade lift bags worked great! Full video of entire dive here - https://youtu.be/lWGwnPFE-m0
