Great now I can see the underwater structure

[@SSPDIVING]

Lol that’ll be $20, thank you 😂 mostly perch! Not much else. I did see a juvenile lingcod, less than 10lbs off the end of the pier but that was it. Lots of healthy perch though.

[@wyatt9841]

@@SSPDIVING thanks

[@Dc5Juni0r]

Cool video. First time fishing here I wondered why this dock had so many rockfish even though I was jigging for salmon. All that structure down there seems perfect for them to hide in.

[@SSPDIVING]

Yeah man they love it there! I see so many rock fish on my dives. They’re tasty, too bad we can’t keep em 😕

[@Theshortasianredneck96]

I don't know why I just now seen this but great video! That rod and reel combo you found belonged to one of my buddies, he just bought it at the mom and pop tackle shop up the road from the pier and his first cast threw the whole thing out there lol

[@SSPDIVING]

Dude that’s wild! Small world! Hahaha that rod and reel is long gone by now. Reel was rusted out and I think pole was broken if I remember correctly but got some debris out of the water so good day. Less snags for you fisherman 😉

[@Theshortasianredneck96]

@@SSPDIVING hell yea thanks man!

[@wyatt9841]

What kind of fish mostly did you see down there

[@SeattleRingHunter]

Nice work and that was a mother load of squid jigs! I see you rigged up a Paralenz and dive light. I see Paralenz released a new model the Vaquita last year. Might be a nice addition to my kit over my original Paralenz. Cheers, #SeattleRingHunter

[@SSPDIVING]

Thank you. The paralenz works great when it wants to work. Add yourself to the 'Paralenz around the world' facebook group, you'll find a ton of first hand reviews and experiences there. Cheers.

Nice video 😀

[@SSPDIVING]

Thanks 😁

[@jaredhernandez2313]

theres a scuba shop near by so i personally wouldn't expect this to be illegal.

[@SSPDIVING]

George at the SCUBA shop former police officer told me it was tresspassing so that's actually where I got the idea for this title lolol

[@WAFishQuest]

Awesome footage! Wonder why it's illegal. Afraid someone will plant a bomb or something?

[@SSPDIVING]

Allegedly it’s considered trespassing. The city of Des Moines is more concerned with diver safety more than anything which is actually reassuring. Didn’t know about this until after the dive though lol.

[@Dc5Juni0r]

Yeah ive seen fisherman get mad and toss rocks off the pier at divers when I was younger at alki.

[@reddragonmirage]

dope ass video man!

[@SSPDIVING]

Haha thank you! Hope you find it interesting 👍🏼

[@marcogarcia6927]

those reefs cause snags and fish die hooked with those snags

[@darkburnstar9269]

Is vis normally that good In Iowa? 🤔

[@glennroberts3069]

Nothing to disturb the water/vis. Hahaha

[@SSPDIVING]

Haha Des Moines, WASHINGTON! lol diving in the puget sound!

[@SSPDIVING]

Visibility is usually this good though, very lucky here.

[@glennroberts3069]

@@SSPDIVING Got to love it!!

[@glennroberts3069]

I live in Central Florida and I have to drive south couple hours or hit the freshwater springs to find clear water like you have. I’m jealous!!

[@rushies4205]

how do i get into a fishing business?

[@SSPDIVING]

That depends... what kind of fishing?

[@hunterdunning7711]

I don't see how that's not legal they don't own the water I think some just told you some B's a city worker as long as you enter water not from the dock peir u should be fine

[@SSPDIVING]

I was told the city considers it trespassing and police have been called before.
