Mike at Fort Lewis's Dive Log

We dove the oil dock today for crab, it was our first time diving for crab and my first time diving in the north west. We had to enter the water from the point near the ferry dock and walk/swim about a quarter mile north to the oil dock, about 20 minutes. We only dove around the first third of the dock, on both the north and south side. The visibility was around 20 feet, and there was almost no current. The south side had a few rock crab, but almost no Dungeness crab. When we swam to the north side there were a number of Dungeness crab. I am not sure what is normal for this area, but there were enough to keep us busy. After 2 dives we (3 of us) ended up with 6 rock crab and 3 Dungeness crab.
