Deanna, I've seen the fishermen cowering onshore and refusing to venture out (when the waves are huge and crazy) and I've gone on out swimming out into the bay and found that below all the crazy stuff on top, it's calm as can be below the surface...a swimmer's delight.

On the other hand, I've seen the surface water as calm as glass and below a torrent of dangerous currents. Often the surface action has nothing to do with what's going on below surface. I don't use the fishermen as guides as to below surface conditions...They never 'get in the water'.
