One of the most memorable dives I have ever experienced was during a bright full moon.
It was in LJ off Marine st. in about 25-30 feet.
The vis was the best I have ever seen,day or night,30 plus.
The surge(early on) was absolutely zero.
I felt as if I were in a swimming pool,the sand seemed to glow from the moon.
Every now and then I would just stop on my knees and look up at the moon light shimmering down through the depths as kelp stalk shadows danced around me.
I beleive I ended up with around 5 keepers this dive.

So,to answer this poll,full moon,at nigh, slack tide with great vis.
