After a slow start surface water temperature is now normal – 14 degrees in mid-July.

Vis on the classics has varied from 10m to 20m with a usual 15m

Ambient light has been a little lower than normal for this time of year – plankton bloom late and hence heavier than normal.

Weather has been mixed the whole season so far and remains unsettled looking forward.  It has been many years since we had such poor weather in May & June and we had a storm mid-July which I have never seen here (June – yes, but never July or August).
