Fun video, we used to go salmon fishing in Howe Sound while living near Vancouver. Good shots of Wolf Eels and Box Crab😊
That looked amazing. I am new to diving but will get to that level some day. Great video.
Great video just loved it
Thank you!
That was a great “meeting “ with the red crab down there! Was that a decorator crab? (ex-diver seeking to return..!) 🥰🙏
Hot divers in cool waters!
Lol DAVE!
DAAAAAAAAAAVVVVVEEEEEEEEEEE
wow, what amazing video, it'd like a different planet down there. What part of the sound were you diving?
We were diving off of Bowyer Island & Bowen Island:) Glad you enjoyed the video!! These two dive spots always are beautiful - SO MANY fish at Bowyer and the variety of invertebrate life doesn’t disappoint!!!
@@diveoceanquest thanks! Yea its crazy how there's such a thriving eco system so close to the city! was that big lingcod around Bowen or Boyer?
@@simongillgannon253 The big ling was at Bowyer - handsome one he was!
@@diveoceanquest Yea such a beautiful fish! Thanks!
It was amazing & beautiful to see the pair of wolf eels in the cave together! 🥰👍
Looks like most of you used similar dry gloves. What make/model/setup are those?
at around 8:00 minutes into the video how deep was it there?
We are at around 50 ft / 15 m. It’s on top of the reef at a dive site called “Canyons”.
what is with the strange twin tanks mounting?
HInt: NEVER giggle or even smile when the camera is on you. The camera should capture you, not make you do things. The second the camera causes a reaction the moment is ruined. There's a reason actors never look into the camera. Because it destroys the mood making the camera obvious and awkward. So respect that and your videos will shine. You've got really good footage here. Its worth showcasing it well.
What would be great is to be able to know the depth the camera is at all the time. Not sure if any camera has a built in depth gauge whose info can be transferred to the video but it would be a cool feature. Also knowing the water temperature at that depth would be great too.
