hydro recording

Hello listeners,
I've been recording Cetacean sounds when the opportunity arises.
In Hawaiian waters are Humpback, False Killer, Pilot, Melon-head, and 
Sperm whales, and Spinner, Bottlenose, Rough-toothed, Spotted, and 
Striped Dolphins, and more. I get some beautiful sounds and want to 
get more, but so far snapping shrimp dominate my recordings. I use 
Cool Edit Pro's "click and pop removal" feature seems overpowered 
(detecting upwards of several hundred clicks per second!) and not 
able to clean them up adequately. I read that snappers are in depths 
up to 30 m.(Can anyone confirm that info?), so I'm heading for deep 
water, but would like to salvage what I've got. 

Another question: Most of my in-the-air recordings are stereo. Is 
hydrophone stereo feasible, using mic's at either end of a 60' boat?

Thanks much,
Aloha,
David
