I agree that is a special place. We just dove there on 9/10/11 and enjoyed every minute of bottom time. I like how much clearer and brighter the water was in your video. Next time look for the swim thru. Maybe we will see you there sometime. You won't be hard to miss.
Awesome video! I have always wondered what it would look like from the bottom looking up at the ladder while salmon were present. Thanks for this video! So are you allowed to take crawdads from there or is everything closed there like fishing is?
The crawdads are good size where we dive. The largest I've seen was a foot long, taken by Jack Eggleston, at the Table Mountain Blvd Bridge. They taste pretty good ... they feed on the dead salmon; so, even if they are invasive, are part of the ecosystem; which was changed drastically by the building of the Oroville Dam (but, we need hydroelectric power).
Hey, nice video. Excellent footage of those Chinook, how do you dive in the tricky river current.You know that nearly every single freshwater crawdad species found in California today is harmfully invasive. Only one species is native and it is found in remote springs near Fall river Mills.

Wow I did not know that. Where did you get that information from? So does that mean I shoudl kill them like carp when I see them?

The current isn't that bad; I've dove there many times. It was easier to dive when I was younger ...
