This is my first time doing this, but here goes:
Myself & fellow spearboard member Curt went spearing today out of Key West. Dove on the Gulf side at a wreck (Alexander's Tug), a tower, & a shallow reef called New Ground. Then we headed south to the Atlantic side & dove Marquesas rock on the barrier reef.
Conditions:
Gulf - Temp 64F, Viz 10ft, Seas 1 ft, 1 knot current
Atlantic - Temp 72F, Viz 60ft, Seas 1 ft, no current
The body count: 5 hogs (2-5lb, 1 4lb, 1-3lb, 1-2lb) & 1 red grouper (5-6lb). Weights are approximate except the larger hogs. All the fish except 2 smaller hogs were shot on the gulf side.
Now if we can just move the fish to the clear, warm, still water.
