Late Dive Report: Del Monte 6/17/06

Dove Del Monte early Saturday morning.  The tides didn't line up well with my schedule for the day but myself and 2 buddies decided to give it a go for flatties anyway.  Arrived to breaking fog and a slight breeze.  We put in near the warf and paddled out halfway to the hotel and anchored up in 30'.  Dove that area for about an hour.  10' vis, 57* water, no bait, no squid eggs, no fish.  I did see what looked like a starry flounder in the shallows but he bolted before I got a good look.

We moved closer to the launch area where we had seen some bait on the paddle out.  The birds were working pretty close into shore.  One buddy spotted a small 10" halibut, but other than that, we ended the day with a fat skunk.  I hope these fish show up soon.  Also, where are the squid?
