Good question.. will have to wait till its closer to the day to get a forecast reading.  If the day is good, will probably hit a nicer spot than my usually SWN, Timber.  Primarily shore dive for myself.

Ill be shore diving on the first and or second of april up in mendocino if any one wants to carpool. Its a great spot but kinda hard to find unless some one shows you. Its a good spot in iffy WX too.

I'm mulling over going on the first, but the long range forecast doesn't look so hot at this point.

I'll be shore diving as well. I guess the weather will be the deciding factor.

DFG regs state Fort Ross Reef is closed April & May. 
Make sure you stay out of the closed area.

I wasn't planning on diving that area but thanks for the reminder. I always make sure to keep abreast of DFGs ever changing regs.

Don't want to ruin a great day of diving with a fat fine.
