G-Land went bad today.  Really bad.  Not much swell at all and strong onshore wind pressed on through sunset.

I went for a dive today and saw 3 really beautiful white-tip reef sharks hanging in the large depression off of Launching Pad.  Kept moving up reef and saw the first blue-spotted ray in my life at the Ledge.  And right after that a small school of blue trevally.  It would have been nice if my shot was better, but at least it was bad enough to miss it completely.  I went for another shot at some type of jackfish and I still feel real bad about ricocheting off it’s side.

Looks like tomorrow may be another diving day.
