Dive Report:  Yogi May 09  Did cemetery 2 with Robfromfort yesterday. Nice wall but the vis was poor due to a plankton bloom and there was fine silt covering everything and very little life. Saw some Phosphorescent Seapens in the silt below the wall but apart from small white anemones, nothing on the wall itself.
